SMS DEP Violations being Appealed

Steel Management Systems (SMS) formerly Encor Coatings in Upper Nazareth was fined by the DEP for environmental violations dating back to 2001. Now the company is appealing the fines according to an article in the Morning Call.


The appeal is based on being held accountable for previous ownership, however, the leadership team is virtually the same.


The article notes:


On Jan. 8, DEP fined SMS $58,297 for air quality violations dating to 2001, including operating without a permit, exceeding pollution limits and failing to pay emissions fees and the $12,883 balance of a 2002 DEP fine.
