ATTACHMENT 1 RESPONSE TO FCC FORM 312, QUESTION 37 In March 2011, Honeywell International Inc. (“Honeywell”) resolved a U.S. government investigation into permitting and storage issues at its Metropolis, Illinois facility by pleading guilty to one Resource Recovery and Conservation Act felony count in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois (Case No. 4:11-cr-40006-JPG), and agreeing to pay a total of $12 million in fines and performing supplemental environmental projects. The government's allegation involved the storage of a regulated material without a proper permit. The company self-reported the incident. No one was injured as a result of exposure to the regulated material, and there was no environmental impact. Honeywell has since acquired the requisite permit and constructed a new storage facility. In addition, Honeywell reviewed the matter with suspension and debarment officials in 2011. The Army Procurement Fraud Branch led the review and determined that no suspension/debarment action was warranted. The company has finished reprocessing the material, well ahead of the government’s deadline.
