<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Alcoa.2C_Inc._Clean_Air_Act_Settlement">Alcoa, Inc. Clean Air Act Settlement</span></h3>
<p>On April 9, 2003 the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. EPA announced a settlement agreement with <strong class="selflink">Alcoa</strong> Inc. for an estimated $330 million to install a new coal-fired power plant at its aluminum production facility in Rockdale, Texas with upgraded pollution controls to help eliminate sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions.</p>
<p>
The settlement resolved allegations filed in federal court by the EPA and its co-plaintiffs, Neighbors for Neighbors, Inc.,<b> Environmental Defense, and Public Citizen</b> that the company had unlawfully operated the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Sandow_Station" title="Sandow Station">Sandow Station</a> since it overhauled the Rockdale power plant without installing necessary pollution controls and without first obtaining proper permits required by the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/New_Source_Review" title="New Source Review">New Source Review</a> program of the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Clean_Air_Act" title="Clean Air Act">Clean Air Act</a>.</p>
<p>
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's executive director Margaret Hoffman said, “As a result of this joint investigation and cooperative effort between state and federal officials, Texans will enjoy cleaner air. That's a victory for everyone.”
The EPA notes that Alcoa's coal-fired plant, located in northeast of Austin, was the single largest non-utility source of SO2 and NOx emissions in the country. The plant generates electricity for two aluminum smelters and a strip-mining operation that supplies lignite coal for the power plant. The aluminum at the plant is used for truck wheels, cans, die-casts, machinery, components for telecommunication devices and appliances.
Alcoa also paid a $1.5 million civil suit and $2.5 million on two additional environmental projects in an attempt to offset past emissions.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Alcoa#cite_note-6">[7]</a></sup></p>
