💨 Abstract

The article reports that Barletta Heavy Division Inc. agreed to pay $11 million to settle criminal charges in Rhode Island. The charges stemmed from the company illegally dumping thousands of tons of contaminated fill during a highway construction project in Providence and deceiving state regulators. The settlement will fund dental care for Providence youth. The company had previously settled with the federal government for $1.5 million.
