hearing to any person against whom the Administrator
proposes to assess a penalty under Section 113(d)(2) of the
Act, 42 U.S.C. § 7413(d)(2). Respondent has the right to
request a hearing on any material fact alleged in the
complaint, or on the appropriateness of the proposed
penalty, or both. To request a hearing, Respondent must
specifically make the request in its answer, as discussed in
paragraphs 42 through 47 below.
Answer
42. Respondent must file a written answer to this complaint if
Respondent contests any material fact of the complaint;
contends that the proposed penalty is inappropriate; or
contends that it is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
To file an answer, Respondent must file the original written
answer and one copy with the Regional Hearing Clerk at the
address specified in paragraph 38, above, and must serve
copies of the written answer on the other parties.
11
43. If Respondent chooses to file a written answer to the
complaint, it must do so within 30 calendar days after
receiving the complaint. In counting the 30 -day time
period, the date of receipt is not counted, but Saturdays,
Sundays, and federal legal holidays are counted. If the 30-
day time period expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or federal
legal holiday, the time period extends to the next business
day.
44. Respondent's written answer must clearly and directly admit,
deny, or explain each of the factual allegations in the
complaint; or must state clearly that Respondent has no
knowledge of a particular factual allegation. Where
Respondent states that it has no knowledge of a particular
factual allegation, the allegation is deemed denied.
45. Respondent's failure to admit, deny, or explain any material
factual allegation in the complaint constitutes an admission
of the allegation.
46. Respondent's answer must also state:
a. the circumstances or arguments which Respondent
alleges constitute grounds of defense;
b. the facts that Respondent disputes;
C. The basis for opposing the proposed penalty; and
d. whether Respondent requests a hearing as discussed

calendar days after receiving this complaint the Presiding
Officer may issue a default order, after motion, under
LI
12
Section 22.17 of the Consolidated Rules. Default by
Respondent constitutes an admission of all factual
allegations in the complaint and a waiver of the right to
contest the factual allegations. Respondent must pay any
penalty assessed in a default order without further
proceedings 30 days after the order becomes the final order
of the Administrator of U.S. EPA under Section 22.27(c) of
the Consolidated Rules.
Settlement Conference
48. Whether or not Respondent requests a hearing, Respondent may
request an informal settlement conference to discuss the
facts of this proceeding and to arrive at a settlement. To
request an informal settlement conference, Respondent may
contact Karl Karg at the address or phone number specified
in paragraph 39, above.
49. Respondent's request for an informal settlement conference
does not extend the 30 calendar day period for filing a
written answer to this complaint. Respondent may pursue
simultaneously the informal settlement conference and the
adjudicatory hearing process. U.S. EPA encourages all
parties facing civil penalties to pursue settlement through
an informal conference. U.S. EPA, however, will not reduce
the penalty simply because the parties hold an informal
settlement conference.
M
Continuing Obligation to Comply
50. Neither the assessment nor payment of a civil penalty will
Date
affect Respondent's continuing obligation to comply with the
Act and any other applicable federal, state, or local law.
