Products Pollution 19. Products Pollution
- Industrial Cleaning Supply Mfg sold a cleaning product to an
industrial manufacturing facility.A fire ensued at that facility
(their client) causing water runoff from the firefighting
efforts.The water runoff entered a nearby reservoir, prompting the
EPA and Department of Fish and Game to become involved.As there was
no pollution coverage on the clients burnt facility, the EPA
solicited recovery of the cleanup costs from every company who had
sold product or raw materials to that facility.The Industrial
Cleaning Supply Manufacturers initial costs were upwards of
$100,000.There will be much defense involved in this as well due to
the number of parties involved and the discussions involving
sharing of costs.

miles of the LA River after water runoff from a recent fire

24. Contractors/Consultant Pollution
- Environmental Consultant hired to determine asbestos levels in
a building set for demolition deems the levels of asbestos found in
the building are under the actionable level and not hazardous upon
