Home Depot Case Settles for $25,000

Between October 2014 and November 2014, Home Depot USA supplied a non-compliant automotive windshield washer fluid product in California that was in violation of VOC limits contained in ARB’s Consumer Product Regulations.  The sale of the product resulted in 55.2 pounds of excess VOC emissions.  Previous violations for the sale of non-compliant windshield washer fluid product by Home Depot USA were considered during the settlement negotiations.  Home Depot USA has since stopped selling the product and implemented product block system to prevent future sale of non-compliant consumer products.  The case was settled on November 10, 2015 for $25,000 based upon the 37 days the product was sold
