Federal contractor NOVA UCCo has paid that fine - $70,000 from the Guam EPA's Hazardous Waste Management Program, $10,000 from the agency's Solid Waste Management program. NOVA also was forced to pay $19,500 after the company didn't meet a timeline for a supplemental environmental project and the value of that project was converted to a cash fine. … For the entire article, see http://www.kuam.com/story/40411064/2019/05/Friday/dod-contractor-that-spilled-jet-fuel-contaminated-water-pays-off-fine -- Lenny Siegel Executive Director Center for Public Environmental Oversight a project of the Pacific Studies Center P.O.
