Final Settlement on Winery Ammonia Death

Mar 22, 2018

(Wines&Vines) - Gibson Wine Co., an agricultural cooperative in Sanger, Calif. agreed to a settlement with federal agencies following the death of a winery worker in 2012.

The government alleged that an accidental release of anhydrous ammonia violated the Clean Air Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act. “It’s a done deal,” said Sacramento attorney James T. Dufour, who represented Gibson in the federal lawsuit.
