English description (short version) of the violation. |
Former Citation |
The citation from Federal or State regulations or statutes that specifies a violation or pending violation in sufficient detail to distinguish it from other violations intended to be addressed separately by other enforcement actions. These regulation numbers or citations can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations or in State regulation publications. Note: This field is provided to show historical information, however, this field is no longer used. |

Actual Return to Compliance Date |
The date the agency determines that the handler demonstrated full physical compliance (the date compliance was verified). The handler will be considered to be out-of-full-physical-compliance until the Actual Returned to Compliance Date has been determined. Actual Return to Compliance Date does not necessarily mean that all enforcement actions are completed for this violation. For violations of omission (such as not manifesting a load of waste), the Actual Return to Compliance Date is the date of a written commitment by the handler to comply in the future or the day of conviction in a criminal action. Penalty payment is not a condition of full physical compliance; however if non-payment is the only violation then the Actual Return to Compliance Date is the date that payment is received. |
