Well, not fan of them since I got one of their recent TVs. They are corporate bastards of highest degree.

That's what collection ponds are for. Unless enough leaked into the creek to kill fish, then it doesn't matter.
Meanwhile, the media conveniently forgot about the largest environmental disaster in the US before deep horizon in one news cycle.
Can anyone name it?

In our community we have several stormwater holding ponds which are used for irrigating grass and common areas. I can't even imagine how they could have tied into the stormwater ponds in the first place. They'd have to get a permit from the city, for sure and possibly from the state as well, depending on who owns the ponds. Regardless, someone gave them permission to tie into the ponds, so I wonder if there was full disclosure during the approval process of what materials would be transferred to the ponds? I've been thru this process in my community, adding a second pump to our community holding pond and the process was burdensome, to say the least. The city and state micromanaged every aspect of what seemed a simple request. So, I'm thinking there is more to this story, much more.The report describes the pond as a stormwater holding pond; whether or not that pond was meant to also contain wastewater isn't mentioned. Fishkill as of report date is limited to the tributary, which is encouraging given the duration of the leak, if not exactly "good".
Everything (almost) gets forgotten in one news cycle. Coverage for this (judged by Google news search) seems mostly in tech publications and local outlets; not exactly what one would call a media firestorm. But no; I can't name the disaster you mean. I also mostly live under a self-imposed rock, though.

The ones who caused the spill and the 1s who allowed it to continue should be held accountable. Also fines shouldn't allow them to increase prices on the end user.Fines are useless.
Punishment needs to fit the offense.
The top executives at the facility need to be made to personally clean up the spill manually.
Then they need an additional ten years at hard labor in a federal penitentiary.
Storm water is not waste water, it is why it is illegal to dump paint, acid, oil, propylene glycol in a storm drain $10,000 fine on a regular person for doing it in the US, possible arrest.The report describes the pond as a stormwater holding pond; whether or not that pond was meant to also contain wastewater isn't mentioned.
