A U.S. District Court judge in Newark, N.J., on March 3 sentenced Gordon D. McDonald, a former project manager at two New Jersey Superfund sites, to 14 years in prison and a $50,000 fine for "participating in multiple bid-rigging, fraud and kickback schemes" involving subcontract awards, says the U.S. Justice Dept.
McDonald was convicted last September. The agency says the prison term is the longest ever imposed for "an antitrust crime."
