Koch’s own reports to the U.S. government were reviewed by iWatch News. The records, known as risk management plans, are maintained by the Environmental Protection Agency. Access is strictly controlled: members of the press and public can only examine 10 plans per month, under the watchful eye of EPA officials.A decade after the worst terrorist attacks on U.S. soil, Koch insists that its neighbors are safe, and are adequately protected by federal and state regulations. All chemical firms are \”vulnerable to human error, acts of nature, theft and sabotage,\” Koch acknowledges. \”It is impossible to completely eliminate every threat.\” But \”chemicals are at the heart of many of our businesses,\” the firm says, in a section titled \”Chemical Safety\” on Koch’s website. \”The ones used in our facilities are handled with care and by trained professionals.\” The Kansas-based conglomerate vows that it \”places compliance and safety before profit.\”

Koch did not respond to repeated inquiries for comment to this story over a week’s time.

The odds of another recession have climbed during the past six months, according to five of nine economists on the Business Cycle Dating Committee of the National Bureau of Economic Research, an academic panel that dates recessions.

Bank of America’s bond-insurance prices last week surged to a rate of $342,040 a year for coverage on $10 million of debt, above where Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (LEHMQ)’s bond insurance was priced at the start of the week before the firm collapsed. Citigroup’s shares are trading below the split-adjusted price of $28 that they hit on the day the bank’s Fed loans peaked in January 2009. The U.S. unemployment rate was at 9.1 percent in July, compared with 4.7 percent in November 2007, before the recession began.

Homeowners are more than 30 days past due on their mortgage payments on 4.38 million properties in the U.S., and 2.16 million more properties are in foreclosure, representing a combined $1.27 trillion of unpaid principal, estimates Jacksonville, Florida-based Lender Processing Services Inc.

Some public agencies continue to charge illegally high copying fees, whether it be the now repealed 75 cents per page, or an illegally high \”special service charge,\” or a flat fee for an audio or video recording instead of actual cost. If you think you\’re being charged an illegally high fee, but don\’t have the time to challenge the fee in Court or the GRC because you need the document right away, you do not waive your right to challenge the fee and receive a refund if you pay the fee. The notion that you\’re waiving your right by paying the fee is called the \”volunteer rule,\” and that rule is not applicable to OPRA. The case that made this finding is called Smith v. Hudson County Register, 411 N.J. Super. 538, 551-54 (Appellate Division 2010).
