The firm reached a tentative agreement with California's attorney general - but did not acknowledge any wrongdoing as part of the deal, reports the Los Angeles Times.
Under the settlement, it must also train staff how to dispose of hazardous waste properly and pay an independent auditor to check compliance for three years. An Alameda County judge will review the deal on March 2."
