"Walmart's illegal disposal of hazardous and medical waste not only violated California laws, but, if left unchecked, posed a threat to human health and the environment," stated Attorney General Rob Bonta.
"The waste consisted of thousands of containers of toxic aerosols and liquid wastes, including spray paints, rust removers, bleach, pesticides and medical waste, such as over-the-counter drugs."
"Due to the health hazards, California officials said the fines are due to Walmart's 'mismanagement of hazardous wastes [that] can result in fires and injuries.'"
