Marathon Oil Company agreed to pay $241.5 million and bring the company into compliance with federal emissions rules in the vicinity of North Dakota’s Fort Berthold Indian Reservation after years of violations, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said.
The company will pay a historic $64.5 million civil penalty, the largest ever for violations of the federal Clean Air Act (CAA), the DOJ announced in a press release Thursday. The DOJ acted on behalf of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The details: Marathon, a Texas-based publicly traded oil and gas company, had violations under four major programs of the CCA, including ambient air quality standards and permitting obligations, the DOJ alleged in its complaint, filed in U.S. District Court for the Western Division of North Dakota.
