Washington — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) report they have finalized a $3 million settlement with Millard Refrigerated Services, Omaha, Neb., involving a 2010 ammonia release at Millard’s facility in Theodore, Ala. (GM May 25, p. 15). The release sickened 152 people after the warehouse’s refrigeration equipment malfunctioned. Four of those affected were admitted to intensive care units. Millard has since sold the Theodore warehouse, and the facility is no longer in operation.
