New Bern, North Carolina Dear Mr. Dillon: NC&634Yo i et� jUN 14 2006 DW Q-WEAR® Enclosed please find the Notice of Final Determination (NOD) issued by the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 (EPA) regarding the violations disclosed by Moen, Inc., in its December 13, 2005, letter. The enclosed final determination was made based on EPA's "Final Policy Statement on Incentives for Self -Policing: Discovery, Disclosure, Correction, and Prevention of Violations," (Audit Policy) and information provided by Moen. Moen's self -disclosure addressed violations of three statutes: the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act (EPCRA), the Clean Water Act (CWA), and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). The enclosed NOD covers only the EPCRA violations; the CWA and RCRA violations will be reviewed and processed by the State of North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NC DENR). EPA is deferring to NC DENR to process the self -disclosed violations regarding the CWA and RCRA for two main reasons. First, the self -disclosed violations regarding the CWA and RCRA are part of programs that are delegated to NC DENR for implementation and enforcement. Second, North Carolina has a self -disclosure audit policy (see, http://www.enr.state.nc.usladminlpdf/EnfPen.pdf). EPA has provided NC DENR (Al Hodge, Surface Water Manager, and Doug Holyfield, Division of Waste Management) with copies of Moen's self - disclosure letter. Intemet Address (UHL) . http://www.spa,gov Racycled/Recyciahte • Printed with Vegetable O1 Based Inks on Recycled Paper (MInimurn 34 % Postconsurneo -2- With regard to the enclosed NOD, EPA found that all of the conditions of the Audit Policy were met. In addition, EPA found that Moen received no significant economic benefit from the violation. As a result, EPA will not seek any penalty for the self -disclosed EPCRA violations. Thank you for your cooperation throughout this process. If you have any questions, please contact me at 404-562- 9589. Sincerely, Vera S. Kornylak Associate Regional Counsel Enclosure .. cc: Doug Holyfield, NC DENR JAI Hodge, NC DENR UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY REGION 4 IN THE MATTER OF: Moen, Inc. ) New Bern Plant ) 101 Industrial Drive ) New Bern, North Carolina 28562 ) Respondent. ) } Proceeding under Section 325 of the ) Emergency Planning and Community } Right -to -Know Act, 42 U.S.C. § 11045 } NOTICE OF DETERMINATION FINAL DETERMINATION Pursuant to the "Final Policy Statement on Incentives for Self -Policing: Discovery, Disclosure, Correction, and Prevention of Violations" (65 FR 19618, April 11, 2000) (Audit Policy), the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4 (EPA) hereby issues this Final Determination on violations of the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act (EPCRA) disclosed to EPA on December 13, 2005, by Moen, Inc. (Moen), at its New Bern, North Carolina faucet assembly facility. AUDIT POLICY EPA issued the Audit Policy to encourage regulated entities to conduct voluntary compliance evaluations and to disclose and promptly correct violations. 'As an incentive for companies to undertake self -policing, self -disclosure, and self -correction of violations, EPA may substantially reduce or eliminate gravity -based civil penalties. However, EPA retains its discretion to recover any economic benefi'i gained as a result of noncompliance. Where the disclosing party establishes that it satisfies all of the conditions summarized below, as set forth in the Audit Policy, EPA will not seek gravity -based penalties for violations of the federal environmental requirements that were self -disclosed. The nine elements of the Audit Policy are: (1) discovery of the violation(s) through an environmental audit or compliance management system; (2) voluntary disclosure; (3) prompt disclosure; (4) discovery and disclosure independent of government or third party plaintiff; (5) correction and remediation; (6) prevent recurrence; (7) no repeat violations; (8) other violations excluded; and (9) cooperation. 9 FINDINGS OF FACT In a self -disclosure letter dated December 13, 2005, Moen disclosed violations of Sections 312 and 313 of EPCRA, 42 U.S.C. §§ 11022, 11023, at its New Bern, North Carolina, facility. The violations included failure to report copper/copper compounds on its Form R reports for years 2000-2004, and failure to have the plant manager sign the Tier II reports. The self -disclosure also included possible violations of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), which are being referred to the State of North Carolina for processing. The self -disclosed violations of the CWA and RCRA are being referred to the State of North Carolina for two reasons: first, the violations of these two statutes relate to programs delegated to the State of North Carolina for enforcement and implementation; second, the State of North Carolina also has a self -disclosure policy similar to EPA's. The following facts support this Notice of Determination regarding the self -disclosed EPCRA violations. (1) Moen failed to include reporting of copper/copper compounds on its Form R reports for 2000-2004. (Exhibit 1) (2) Moen failed to have the New Bern plant manager sign its Tier H reports. (Exhibit 1) (3) The violations did not cause any actual harm, nor did they present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment. (4) Moen discovered the violations as a result of a facility -wide audit performed every 2- 3 years by an independent contractor. . (5) Moen provided EPA with information responsive to the nine conditions of the Audit Policy for all the reported violations, allowing EPA to determine that Moen is eligible for a reduction in gravity -based penalties. (Exhibit 1) (6) Moen self -disclosed violations of the CWA and RCRA which are being referred to, the State of North Carolina for processing and resoldtion. FINAL DETERMINATION Pursuant to the Audit Policy and based on information provided by Moen, EPA makes the following final determination for the EPCRA violations which were disclosed by Moen and are identified above. Additional information is available in Exhibit 1, which includes Moen's self -disclosure letter. The EPCRA violations disclosed in Moen's December 13, 2005, self - disclosure could potentially have resultedin a gravity -based penalty of $131,975. However, because Moen met the conditions for 100 percent reduction of gravity -based penalties, no gravity -based penalty will be assessed against Moen for the EPCRA violations that were self - disclosed. Additionally, EPA was not able to calculate' any economic benefit as a result of these violations and EPA will not seek to recover the economic benefit for these violations. 3 This final determination is consistent with the purposes of the Audit Policy, taking into account that the reported violations did not cause any actual harm or present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment.

The facility has protection equipment, spill control equipment and conducted an inventory of equipment and decontamination equipment must be conducted as necessary implemented procedures to verify proper testing and -to assure its proper operation in time of emergency. maintenance. As is fully discussed in this letter, Moen satisfies all nine Audit Policy conditions: (1) systematic discovery; (2) voluntary discovery; (3) prompt disclosure; (4) discovery and disclosure independent of government or third -party plaintiff; (5) correction and remediation; (6) prevent recurrence; (7) no repeat violations; (8) other violations excluded; and (9) cooperation. Each of the conditions is discussed separately below: 1. Systematic discovery. The matters described above were discovered by Moen via an .environmental audit. The environmental audit was conducted by Moen and its consultant, ERM, as part of a periodic and objective review of environmental compliance. ERM was retained by Moen to evaluate the New Bern plant's compliance with various environmental requirements. As part of that effort, ERM reviewed the plant's compliance with various applicable environmental requirements and discovered the above -noted matters. 2. Voluntary discovery. For voluntary discovery, the Audit Policy requires that the violation be identified voluntarily and not through a monitoring, sampling or auditing procedure required by statute, regulation, permit, order, or consent agreement. The violations disclosed herein were voluntarily found by Moen and its consultant as discovery was not through an audit required by statute, regulation, permit, order or consent agreement. 3. Prompt disclosure. The requirement for prompt disclosure is satisfied if disclosure is provided to EPA in writing within 21 days after discovery of the violation. Following the environmental audit of the New Bern site, ERM confirmed the above -noted issues. The findings were conveyed to Moen on November 28, 2005. Thus, this submittal is made within the 21 days required for prompt disclosure. 4. Discovery and disclosure inderendent of aovernment or third -party plaintiff. The issues described in this letter were discovered independent of any government or third -party activity. Specifically, Moen discovered the potential violations prior to the commencement of any federal, state or local agency inspection or investigation or the issuance of any information request to Moen. ' In addition, Moen has not' received any notice of a citizens suit or any complaint by a third party regarding the issues. Finally, to Moen's knowledge, there has been no reporting related to these matters to EPA by a "whistleblower" employee, nor was there any imminent discovery of the violation by any agency. 5. Correction/remediation. This condition requires Moen to correct the violation within 60 calendar days from the date of discovery, certify in writing that the violation has been corrected and take appropriate measures to remedy any environmental or human harm due to the violation. As summarized in the table • above, Moen has completed all the actions necessary to address the matters identified and hereby certifies that the actions have been implemented. There is no concern regarding environmental or human harm as the underlying violations relate to updating various reports and plans or otherwise addressing matters that have not resulted in any actual or threatened harm. 6. Prevent recurrence. Moen will take steps to ensure that EPCRA reporting violations will not be repeated at this or other Moen facilities. Specifically, Moen's Director of Environmental and Energy Affairs will share information on the audit findings at the New Bern plant with all Moen environmental coordinators regarding EPA's Form R reporting requirements. We have also requested EPA guidance documents on Section 313 reporting that provide EPA's technical interpretations of the reporting requirements and exemptions. Moen has implemented and documented procedures to address the other matters described above so that such matters are addressed in due course as part of Moen's commitment to environmental compliance. Moen has calendared the actions required to address the above matters. 7. No repeat violations. Moen has not had the same or closely related violations at any of its facilities within the past three years and has not received any penalty mitigations from EPA or from a state or local agency for the matters summarized above. 8. Other violations excluded. The matters described in this letter relate primarily to paperwork issues that did not result in serious actual harm or present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment. The remaining matters similarly did not result in serious actual harm, nor an imminent and substantial endangerment. The failure to undertake the actions summarized above did not violate the specific terms of any judicial or administrative order or consent agreement. 9. Cooperation. Moen will fully cooperate with EPA should you require any additional information or action. Given the fact that Moen satisfies all nine conditions of the Audit Policy, Moen respectfully submits that it is entitled to the incentives provided by the Audit Policy, including eliminating the gravity based component of the penalty, not referring the matter for criminal prosecution and not requesting copies of the audit report. Moen also respectfully requests that the EPA maintain the confidentiality of our disclosure. Should you have any gi►estions, please contact George McRae at 919-258-4203.

The audit findings were conveyed to Moen on November 25, 2005. Moen provided ERM background information concerning site description, manufacturing processes; raw materials, hazardous waste generator status, required permits and safety and health programs for review prior to the visit. External audits are performed every 2-3 years. However, internally we have formal annual audits. In addition, a Moen corporate representative informally visits on a quarterly basis to review progress with the plant Manager. The audit was performed by an,ERM consultant we use on a regular basis. The consultant conducted a site walk-through to gain an overall impression of the facility. During the audit, written policies and procedures used to address.EH&S regulatory requirements were examined. Recordkeeping relating to EH&S was also reviewed. Where appropriate, independent documents were examined to determine how thoroughly the policies and procedure were being addressed. Many times an employee was interviewed to determine program'execution or validate findings. #6 Moen has an internal'•management system of which one element is auditing. The plant performs a self -audit and reports the results annually. We also use a combination of Excel spreadsheets and Microsoft Outlook (Tasks) to calendar critical dates related to program review and compliance. I hope this additional information will allow you to finalize your review. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me and I will assist. Dennis W.

In addition, Moen has not received any notice of a citizens suit or any complaint by a third party regarding the issues. Finally, to Moen's knowledge, there has been no reporting related to these matters to EPA by a "whistleblower" employee, nor was there any imminent discovery of the violation by any agency. 5. Correction/remediation. This condition requires Moen to correct the violation within 60 calendar days from the date of discovery, certify in writing that the violation has been corrected and take appropriate measures to remedy any environmental or human harm due to the violation. As summarized in the table above, Moen has completed all the actions necessary to address the matters identified and hereby certifies that the actions have been implemented. There is no concern regarding environmental or human harm as the underlying violations relate to updating various reports and plans or otherwise addressing matters that have not resulted in any actual or threatened harm. 6. Prevent recurrence. Moen will take steps to ensure that EPCRA reporting violations will not be repeated at this or other Moen facilities. Specifically, Moen's Director of Environmental and Energy Affairs will share information on the audit findings at the New Bern plant with all Moen environmental coordinators regarding EPA's Form R reporting requirements. We have also requested EPA guidance documents on Section 313 reporting that provide EPA's technical interpretations of the reporting requirements and exemptions. Moen has implemented and documented procedures to address the other matters described above so that such matters are addressed in due course as part of Moen's commitment to environmental compliance. Moen has calendared the actions required to address the above matters. 7. No repeat violations. Moen has not had the same or closely related violations at any of its facilities within the past three years and has not received any penalty mitigations from EPA or from a state or local agency for the matters summarized above. 8. Other violations excluded. The matters described in this letter relate primarily to paperwork issues that did not result in serious actual harm or present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment. The remaining matters similarly did not result in serious actual harm, nor an imminent and substantial endangerment. The failure to undertake the actions summarized above did not violate the specific terms of any judicial or administrative order or consent agreement. 9. Cooperation. Moen_ will fully cooperate with EPA should you require any additional information or action. Given the fact that Moen satisfies all nine conditions of the Audit Policy, Moen respectfully submits that it is entitled to the incentives provided by the Audit Policy, including eliminating the gravity based component of the penalty, not referring the matter for criminal prosecution and not -requesting copies of the audit report. Moen'also respectfully requests that the EPA maintain the confidentiality of our disclosure. Should you have any questions, please contact George McRae at 919-258-4203.
