So six months go by and OSHA finally gets around to citing violations. This is on a plant they hadn’t been to since 1985. 28 years between inspections seems a little long to me.
It took six months for OSHA to levy the violations because they forgot what the plant looked like when it wasn’t a hole in the ground, and they had to scout out retired inspectors to see if they still had notes and photographs to work from.
Lets see here. 15 wrongful death claims. Half of the town destroyed. If I were the liability insurer for Adair Grain, I’d strongly consider paying out the entire $1 million coverage limits!

Fined only $118,000??? Really? That’s not enough.
