EPA hits two more diesel tuners with $10 million fine for defeat devices.
An additional judgment of just under $1 million was also entered against the shop owner relating to the Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act and alleged fraudulent transfers. Piccolo and his associates allegedly began to move assets out of the businesses once the EPA began to insist on compliance, while continuing to ignore the EPA’s information requests.
In order to prevent any further harm or illegal behavior, the judge in this case also issues a permanent injunction against Piccolo and both of his companies, which prevents any future sales of defeat devices without another wave of major penalties. Of course a single $10 million fine should be enough of a deterrent to prevent any further action.
