CSW Industrials, Inc. Settles For $54,625
In August 2023, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) reached a settlement with CSW Industrials, Inc. (CSW), with its principal location in Dallas, Texas, for the company’s violation of the Regulation for Reducing Emissions From Consumer Products (Consumer Products Regulation) as codified in the California Code of Regulations, title 17, section 94807 et seq.
CARB staff conducted an investigation that revealed CSW sold, supplied, offered for sale or manufactured for use in California, General Purpose Degreaser (aerosol) category product that contained prohibited toxic compound, methylene chloride (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 17, § 94509(m)).
CSW cooperated fully with CARB to resolve this matter. To come into compliance, CSW are no longer offering the product for sale in California. The penalty of $54,625 for the prohibited toxic emissions will be deposited into CARB’s Air Pollution Control Fund, which provides funding for projects and research to improve California’s air quality.
