Citigroup Venture Capital has been exposed as the largest shareholder, with a 75% stake, in Mincorp Acquisition Corp., whose mining operation at Quecreek last year unleashing a torrent of water that trapped miners 245 feet underground. Citigroup (and its various environmental partners) have been very quiet about this one... It's not "project finance" -- it's a direct investment. Developing...
In Wisconsin, the Department of Justice filed a multimillion-dollar lawsuit earlier this month against the City of South Milwaukee for environmental violations over the last five years from its hauled and industrial waste program. The lawsuit also asks for an injunction to stop from city from taking any more hauled industrial waste... A bit too easy: in Philadelphia, Temple University has avoided a $285,000 U.S. EPA fine by disclosing violations at 10 of its campuses. Schools can avoid paying millions of dollars in fines by reporting environmental regulatory violations directly to the U.S. EPA,

Citigroup subsidiaries such as Mincorp LLC are also directly involved in mining operations. In 1998, IMC Global sold its soda ash and boron chemicals business to Mincorp LLC, a holding company of Citicorp Venture Capital. The deal was valued at $520 million. IMC will retain a 40% stake in Mincorp, which will include Rhone-Poulenc (RP) subsidiary Novacarb (Nancy, France). Mincorp will become the world's third-largest soda ash producer, with operations in the U.S., western Europe, and Australia. Mincorp will probably remain headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas.

That FAA thing was good, tho. My WATS vote for you was for that, not the Gwion debunking BTW. better pop over now and see who I've pissed off today.
