From The Associated Press:

Federal workplace regulators have proposed $127,000 in fines against a Janesville computer monitor recycler.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration alleges CRT Processing LLC exposed workers to carbon monoxide, lead and cadmium. The agency began an inspection at the facility in January after receiving information about potential violations. OSHA spokesman Brad Mitchell declined to elaborate. Mitchell says the company can respond by paying the fines or requesting a hearing.
