...part of a broader scheme carried out by TYCO's
environmental managers between 1999 and June 2001 at each of the three
Connecticut facilities to avoid reporting permit violations, particularly
regarding toxic metals and pH. To effectuate the illegal scheme, which Callahan
orchestrated, Dadalt and Smith used several different tactics including:
- the screening of composite samples so that
TYCO could identify samples that would reveal violations of the company's
discharge permit;
- the dilution of potentially noncompliant
wastewater samples in order to prepare watered-down and thus seemingly
compliant samples, which resulted in TYCO reporting false and misleading
test results to the DEP;
- the discarding of composite samples with
excessive levels of toxic metals and the submission of unrepresentative test
results to the DEP on subsequently prepared compliant samples;
- the screening of wastewater samples for pH,
such that noncomplying pH results were simply omitted from the pH range
reported to the DEP.
