Shell’s air pollution violations result in $10 million fine for Beaver County ethane cracker

https://stateimpact.npr.org/pennsylvania/2023/05/25/shells-air-pollution-violations-result-in-10-million-fine-for-beaver-county-ethane-cracker/

From the Article: The plant started operations in November and has already racked up over a dozen air violations, including many related to flaring, and reported 43 malfunctions since the beginning of 2022.

Looks like they lied on their economic impact and their impact on air quality. Go figure.
