San Gabriel Valley Aquifer Cleanup Plans Rejected
8 June 2000 - 9:23am
Proposal by Aerojet General Corp. to cleanup polluted aquifer is rejected.

The San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority and EPA believe Aerojet to be the largest of 19 polluters of the 16-year-old Superfund site. Aerojet's proposal was $48 million; cleanup estimates range to $200 million, raising the possibility of litigation.
