Pipe Company Charged With Environmental, Workplace Abuses ABC News/AP
Federal authorities on Monday accused a pipe manufacturer and five of its managers of fouling the environment and maintaining a workplace so dangerous that a worker died and many others were maimed.
The criminal charges against Atlantic States Cast Iron Pipe Co. were announced by the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey following the arrest of four of the managers at the company's plant in Phillipsburg. The fifth was expected to surrender before the group's first court appearance, scheduled for 1 p.m. Eastern time in the federal courthouse in Trenton.
'This company has a notorious history of wanton pollution of our environment, evading detection at all costs, and ruling the workplace through fear and intimidation of employees, all of which is alleged in this indictment,' U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Christie said.------------------------------------------- posted 10:43 AM :: reference link ::
