Settlement in New Mexico Stemmed from Air Pollution Allegations
The owner of a natural gas plant in southeastern New Mexico has agreed to pay the state nearly $70,000 to settle a case involving allegations of air quality violations.
The New Mexico Environment Department announced the settlement with Regency Field Services LLC this month.
State officials say Regency reported the violations as required and has since taken action to prevent further violations. The violations included failure to demonstrate compliance with emissions limits and failure to maintain certain records. Testing and monitoring equipment were part of other accusations.
The department says it was made aware of the alleged violations through two reports submitted by Regency in 2013.
