In September 2025 DEQ modified the campus's Air Contaminant Discharge Permit for a new emergency generator engine to supply power to the scrubber system in the event of a power outage.
- Ownership
- PCC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berkshire.
- Permits and enforcement
- DEQ regulates the facilities through its air quality permitting program and industrial stormwater permitting program, and is working on air quality permits for the Large Parts Campus. In October 2026 DEQ issued a pre-enforcement notice to PCC for water pollution violations at Johnson Creek in September 2026.
