Santa Rosa, Calif.-based North Bay Corp. faces $13.4 million in fines from years of alleged contract violations. In addition to that issue, North Bay’s request to operate a regional recycling center in Santa Rosa has been rejected, and the company must invest $4.5 million to upgrade one of its two Santa Rosa recycling centers, which have operated for more than a year even though a cease-and-desist order was issued from the county Department of Environmental Health.

The Press Democrat has more information:
