"For years, Frontier's careless and unlawful hazardous waste disposal practices jeopardized the health and environmental well-being of California communities," said Attorney General Rob Bonta. This statement underscores the seriousness of Frontier's violations and their impact on public health and safety.
"Today's settlement holds them accountable for breaking the law and implements strict measures to prevent them from putting Californians and our environment at risk in the future." This highlights the intention behind the settlement to enforce compliance and protect the community.
"The settlement is a result of over 12 waste inspections conducted from 2011 to 2013, during which more than 300 potentially hazardous items were recovered from regular trash dumpsters at 10 Frontier facilities," revealing the extent of negligence and the types of hazardous waste involved.
"This settlement should put others on notice that district attorneys and the Attorney General will continue to work together to investigate and prosecute violations against our environment," said District Attorney Stephen Wagstaffe, indicating a broader commitment to environmental enforcement.
