The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced a settlement with Gulfstream Aerospace Services Corp., an aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul facility located at 6400 Curtis Steinberg Dr, Cahokia, Illinois, for alleged Clean Air Act violations. Under the terms of the settlement, Gulfstream will pay a civil penalty exceeding $156,000 and will replace three diesel ground power units with electric ground power units as a supplemental environmental project. This replacement is estimated to cost at least $540,060.

The settlement addresses several alleged violations including exceedances of raw material usage limits, volatile organic material content limits, and volatile organic material emission limits for certain units. Additionally, it resolves issues related to inadequately maintained filters and filter records for specific units, inadequately maintained continuous emissions monitoring equipment and records, and untimely reporting of exceedances or deviations.
