MILESTONES, Page 50
FINED. Imperial Food Products, Atlanta-based owner of a
chicken-processing plant in Hamlet, N.C., where 25 workers died
in a fire last September; in Raleigh. The state of North
Carolina levied $808,150 in penalties for violations including
locked exit doors and inadequate emergency lighting. The state
had never inspected the plant in its 11 years of operation.
While a record for North Carolina, the fine was small compared
with multimillion-dollar federal fines for industrial accidents.
With federal approval, the state administers its own
plant-safety program.
