Polluters Indicted in Dearborn
The Dearborn Press & Guide is reporting that Comprehensive Environmental Solutions, Inc. and three of its former employees have been idicted for illegally dumping toxic waste into Detroit's Water & Sewage System. A federal grand jury returned a 12-count indictment against them last week, charging them with violations of both a city ordinance and the Clean Water Act.
The company, according to the indictment, had been doing this since March, 2002. While I'm thrilled that these polluters are being prosecuted, the fact that it took the government roughly 4 year to bring them to justice is somewhat troubling.
