California Air Resources Board Fines ABI $500,000 for Pollution

The case involved medium and heavy-duty trucks and involved allegations Anheuser-Busch had failed to properly self-inspect 19 diesel trucks to insure they met state smoke emission standards.

Half of what Anheuser-Busch was fined, $250,000, will go to the Air Pollution Control Fund to support air pollution research. The remaining $250,000 will go to the South LA Urban Greening and Community Forestry Project, where it will fund the planting of 300 trees over a five-year period in the public parkways of disadvantaged communities in South Los Angeles County.
