NAVY PUBLIC WORKS CENTER

Navy Public Works Center (NPWC) operates as a federal facility network under NAICS 928110 (National Security) with headquarters reporting tied to Philadelphia, PA. EPA ECHO records covering five linked facility IDs show 8 violation quarters and an estimated $3,510,500 in penalties over the trailing 24 months, derived from a five-year total scaled to the 24-month window [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The Pearl Harbor location at 850 Ticonderoga Street, zip code 96860, alone carries a compliance grade of F on third-party aggregations, with 21 inspections, 23 violation quarters, and $8,776,250 in total five-year penalties spanning Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and RCRA programs [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi].

As a federal entity, NPWC files no 10-K or 10-Q and publishes no consolidated sustainability report. Environmental performance surfaces instead through Department of Defense and Secretary of the Navy award narratives, Federal Facility Agreements under CERCLA Section 120, and EPA Superfund site profiles [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. The penalty record includes a documented $40,000 EPA Region 10 settlement announced December 20, 2005, tied to the Jackson Park Housing Complex near Bremerton, Washington — the action resolved a Notice of Non-Compliance issued for failure to submit a required investigation workplan covering unexploded ordnance at Operable Unit 3T, a remnant of the former Naval Ammunition Depot Puget Sound [source: https://cpeo.org/lists/military/2005/msg00858.html]. Active permit count in ECHO is recorded as zero, with the latest permit-related date logged as 2025-12-10. The EJ index average is reported as 0.0, a figure that reflects gaps in federal-facility EJSCREEN rollups rather than any absence of adjacent communities [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].

NPWC's compliance footprint spans five ECHO-linked facility IDs — 110002064649, 110022302417, 110038835678, 110053913887, and 110053913850 — with program authority covering the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The aggregated 24-month violation count of 8 quarters and penalty total of $3,510,500 sit within a larger five-year penalty envelope concentrated at Pearl Harbor, where PollutionScan's parsing of ECHO data shows violations recorded across all three statutory programs over the most recent 12-quarter compliance history [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi]. ECHO's zero-count on active permits reflects how NPWC operations are frequently covered under host-installation NPDES and Title V authorizations rather than NPWC-branded permits, which complicates clean attribution [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip].

A chronological read of the past 24 months, anchored to the 2026-05-04 data pull, shows sustained violation-quarter accumulation at the Pearl Harbor site across CAA, CWA, and RCRA tracks, two formal enforcement actions over the broader five-year window, and 10 CAA evaluations — a cadence consistent with a major industrial federal facility under continuing regulatory oversight [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi]. That pattern at Pearl Harbor does not stand alone. On the CERCLA track, EPA Region III's Federal Facility Agreement with the Department of the Navy covering Naval Base Norfolk — Administrative Docket III-FCA-CERC-015 — remains the governing cleanup instrument for Norfolk-area waste areas, a status unchanged by news-cycle events of the past year [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. In Pennsylvania, the Naval Air Development Center in Warminster Township and the Navy Ships Parts Control Center in Mechanicsburg continue under active Superfund oversight, with EPA site profiles listing ongoing operable-unit cleanup activity at both locations [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Cleanup&id=0302466] [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0302460].

Recent state-level news coverage surfaces no new enforcement order against NPWC-branded operations in the 30-day window. Reporting from jdnews.com on 2026-05-04 describes modernization construction at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune barracks under public-works officer direction, which touches Navy public-works activity but does not constitute an environmental enforcement event [source: https://jdnews.com/news/local/millions-invested-to-modernize-marine-barracks/article_d4daa60e-3518-5654-9ba2-a17ac1d5e0b1.html]. Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development announcements from May 2025 cite a $30 million PA SITES grant tied to the Philadelphia Navy Yard redevelopment area — a civilian-economic program entirely distinct from NPWC compliance status [source: https://dced.pa.gov/newsroom/governor-shapiro-highlights-30-million-investment-in-philadelphia-navy-yard-through-first-pa-sites-grant-awards-creating-hundreds-of-jobs-building-shovel-ready-sites-for-businesses-and-superchargi/].

ECHO-derived figures for the trailing 24 months show 8 violation quarters and $3,510,500 in penalties across the five linked facility IDs. The derivation methodology is documented as viol_24mo = min(quarters_with_non-compliance, 8) and penalty_24mo = total_5yr × (24/60) [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Pearl Harbor (FRS 110022302417) accounts for the dominant share. PollutionScan's compilation of ECHO output records 2 formal enforcement actions and $8,776,250 in total penalties across the five-year window, with CAA showing predominantly Violation/SNC quarters, CWA showing mixed resolved and violation quarters across 13 recorded periods, and RCRA showing a blended pattern of violation and resolved status [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi]. Program category detail lists 10 CAA evaluations against the Pearl Harbor facility specifically [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi].

The historical record outside the 24-month window adds useful pattern context. On December 20, 2005, EPA Region 10 announced a $40,000 penalty paid by the U.S. Navy to resolve a Notice of Non-Compliance tied to Operable Unit 3T at the Jackson Park Housing Complex near Bremerton, Washington. The NON was issued for failure to submit a required investigation workplan under the Jackson Park Interagency Cleanup Agreement, covering unexploded ordnance from the former Naval Ammunition Depot Puget Sound — a site with operational history spanning both World War I and World War II [source: https://cpeo.org/lists/military/2005/msg00858.html].

On the CERCLA track, the governing instrument at Norfolk is the Federal Facility Agreement under CERCLA §120 between EPA Region III and the Department of the Navy, Administrative Docket III-FCA-CERC-015. That agreement structures investigation and remediation obligations rather than civil penalties [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. Pennsylvania Superfund sites under Navy stewardship — the Naval Air Development Center covering 8 Waste Areas in Warminster Township, and the Navy Ships Parts Control Center on its 824-acre Mechanicsburg footprint — remain in active cleanup per EPA site profiles, with operable-unit work continuing at both [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Cleanup&id=0302466] [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0302460].

NPWC Pearl Harbor (FRS 110022302417), 850 Ticonderoga St, Pearl Harbor, HI 96860 — the dominant compliance-risk node in the NPWC cluster. ECHO-derived records aggregated by PollutionScan show 21 total inspections, 23 violation quarters, $8,776,250 in five-year penalties, and 2 formal actions across CAA, CWA, and RCRA [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi]. The facility carries a 'major' designation under all three programs. No other facility in the five-FRS cluster approaches that penalty total.

Naval Base Norfolk, Norfolk, VA — governed by a Federal Facility Agreement with EPA Region III under CERCLA §120 (Administrative Docket III-FCA-CERC-015), structuring long-duration investigation and remediation activities rather than episodic civil-penalty events [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. The installation remains heavily active industrially. USS Dwight D. Eisenhower completed planned incremental availability at Norfolk in the past week, a maintenance evolution that illustrates the scale of shipyard operations continuing at the base [source: https://seapowermagazine.org/uss-dwight-d-eisenhower-completes-planned-incremental-availability-at-norfolk/].

Naval Air Development Center (8 Waste Areas), Warminster Township, PA — a Superfund site with ongoing cleanup across multiple operable units. EPA's site profile tracks background, completed actions, and current status across all eight designated waste areas [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Cleanup&id=0302466]. Health and environmental exposure pathways are tracked under a separate EPA profile page maintained within the same Superfund system [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Healthenv&id=0302466].

Navy Ships Parts Control Center, Mechanicsburg, PA — an 824-acre Superfund site that served as global repair-parts management for Navy ships beginning in the 1940s and later held metal ores received as war payment. That dual-use history left a layered contamination profile. EPA's profile documents cleanup progress across operable units [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0302460].

Navy Public Works Center San Francisco — listed among EPA Superfund site profiles per the Brave SERP return, indicating historical industrial contamination within the broader NPWC network [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/csitinfo.cfm].

ECHO's top_pollutants list for the NPWC cluster returned empty in the current pull, so pollutant attribution is drawn from program-level and site-profile evidence rather than TRI emissions data [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Three dominant exposure categories emerge from that program history. First: unexploded ordnance and munitions constituents at former ammunition facilities. The Jackson Park Housing Complex OU3T contains abandoned military ordnance from the former Naval Ammunition Depot Puget Sound, with operational history spanning WWI and WWII [source: https://cpeo.org/lists/military/2005/msg00858.html]. Second: RCRA-regulated hazardous waste streams from shipyard industrial operations, reflected in the Pearl Harbor RCRA violation-quarter pattern and in long-duration CERCLA tracks at Norfolk [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi] [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. Third: legacy metals and solvents at Pennsylvania Superfund sites. The Navy Ships Parts Control Center in Mechanicsburg served as a repository for metal ores received as war payment, a source category that drives the site's contamination profile [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0302460].

Exposure pathways documented in EPA Superfund site profiles include soil, sediment, and groundwater at the Naval Air Development Center Warminster operable units. A dedicated health-and-environmental page on EPA's Superfund system tracks pathway-specific findings for that site [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Healthenv&id=0302466].

Environmental-justice implications cannot be read from ECHO's ej_index_avg of 0.0 for this cluster. That figure reflects a data rollup gap, not an adjacency finding [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. Residential exposure context exists at Jackson Park, where the OU3T ordnance area directly adjoins a housing complex — a pathway explicitly flagged in EPA Region 10's December 2005 enforcement release [source: https://cpeo.org/lists/military/2005/msg00858.html].

Within NAICS 928110 (National Security), the nearest peer by penalty magnitude in the ECHO-derived 24-month window is US Army Garrison White Sands Missile Range, at $3,972,038 in penalties and 8 violation quarters across 1 facility, versus NPWC's $3,510,500 and 8 violation quarters across 5 facilities [source: https://echo.epa.gov/files/echodownloads/echo_exporter.zip]. The structural difference matters. White Sands concentrates its entire compliance load at a single large installation, while NPWC distributes a comparable penalty envelope across five FRS IDs — though the Pearl Harbor node dominates the NPWC total, with PollutionScan's ECHO parsing showing $8,776,250 in five-year penalties at that single location alone [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi]. Both entities report ej_index_avg of 0.0, a federal-facility data-rollup characteristic rather than a substantive adjacency finding.

NPWC is not an SEC registrant and files no Item 1A risk-factor disclosure. Forward-looking environmental risk must be inferred from federal documents. The Federal Facility Agreement at Naval Base Norfolk — CERCLA §120, Docket III-FCA-CERC-015 — creates multi-decade remediation obligations tied to operable-unit milestones [source: https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-06/navalbasenorfolk.pdf]. Active Superfund status at the Naval Air Development Center in Warminster, PA, and the Navy Ships Parts Control Center in Mechanicsburg, PA, exposes the Navy to continuing cleanup-cost and schedule risk across operable units at both sites [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.Cleanup&id=0302466] [source: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/SiteProfiles/index.cfm?fuseaction=second.cleanup&id=0302460]. The sustained violation cadence at Pearl Harbor across CAA, CWA, and RCRA programs indicates continuing exposure to formal enforcement action beyond the 2 formal actions already recorded in the five-year window [source: https://pollutionscan.com/facility/110022302417/navy-public-works-center-pearl-harbor-hi].
