    Sims reaches Rhode Island pollution settlement

    Sims Metal Management and its subsidiary SMM New England Corp. reached a legal agreement over air-pollution and permit violations at Rhode Island facilities. The agreement, filed in court on August 12, requires payments totaling $875,000 and sets conditions including installation of pollution-control equipment and obtaining a permit. Rhode Island officials said the operations emitted pollutants linked to health problems; Sims said the dispute concerned the type of permit required.
