DNREC will hold a virtual public information session to describe air emission and equipment violations at the Croda facility and answer questions from the community.

DNREC has issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) to Croda, Inc. for air emission and equipment violations associated with the operation of the ethylene oxide (EO) plant at Croda’s Cherry Lane Facility near New Castle.

An NOV is the first step in a process that can lead to DNREC taking further enforcement actions. DNREC is currently working from its regulatory purview to determine the path forward for Croda’s resuming operations at the EO plant.

Questions and comments from the public can also be sent to daqpermittinginfo@delaware.gov.
