PLEADED GUILTY. Rockwell International Corp.; to criminal
violations of hazardous-waste and clean-water laws, in
connection with its operation of Colorado's Rocky Flats
nuclear-weapons plant; in Denver. Rockwell admitted it stored
wastes in containers that permitted pollutants to reach
reservoirs supplying drinking water to nearby municipalities.
The corporation has agreed to pay an $18.5 million fine, the
second largest ever in an environmental-damage suit.
