So they were caught with their hand in the cookie jar and the proposed settlement has them being forced to retrofit their vessels. Big deal, something they should have done years ago. Also, they had to retroactively "buy" the allowances that would have made the import legal. Again, something they should have done. Neither of those are penalties so essentially this large corporation knowingly allowed its vessels to leak refrigerant and then were caught illegally smuggling in a huge volume of replacement refrigerant and get fined $700K - a drop in the bucket to their overall operating costs. So where is the personal liability for the person or persons responsible??
