KT Soap Products fined for continued violations

La Porte’s Board of Public Works and Safety approved fines against KT Soap Products for continued violations of the city’s industrial pretreatment rules. The penalties date back to July 1 and will continue until the company complies for at least two consecutive quarters, following a recommendation from the city’s pretreatment coordinator. Officials said the wastewater problems followed an expansion that increased flows and operating responsibilities.
