One of the United States“ largest container glass manufacturers has agreed to pay a USD 140,000 fine for violating federal air regulations at its Madera wine bottle plant. The fine by the US Environmental Protection Agency stems from a 2005 settlement in which Indiana-based Saint-Gobain Containers Inc. agreed to pay USD 929,000 for air pollution violations at the bottle manufacturing plant. The company agreed to spend more than USD 7 million to control emissions as part of the EPA settlement. The EPA said 30 September 2008 that Saint-Gobain was fined for failing to comply with monitoring, record-keeping and reporting requirements of the Clean Air Act.
