Target Corp. (TGT) has reached a $7.4 million settlement related
to allegations about its handling of hazardous waste in California,
according to state attorney general Xavier Becerra.
Target representatives didn't immediately respond to requests
for comment late Wednesday.
Local prosecutors had alleged that Target unlawfully disposed of
hazardous waste including electronics, batteries and compact
fluorescent light bulbs, as well as medical waste including
syringes. They alleged it didn't comply with the requirements of a
$22.5 million hazardous waste settlement in 2011.
