NRC Issues Chilling Effect Letter to Holtec
The NRC found during a recent inspection that a Chilled Work Environment exists in Holtec's Supply Chain and Quality Assurance departments at the Palisades plant.
The October 13 finding is limited to those two departments and does not involve any violations or significant plant safety issues. The NRC expects Holtec to share the findings with employees, take immediate steps to reassure staff, conduct an independent evaluation,submit a corrective action plan within 30 days, and implement corrective actions.
The NRC will review the plan and oversee Holtec's response.
The agency has determined that existing measures adequately protect plant safety, and based on current information, the findings are not expected to affect the planned restart of the Palisades facility.
The agency will continue to verify through inspection and oversight that safety requirements are met and these issues are effectively addressed.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 -- The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued the following news release:

Wagner Equipment to Pay $200,000 to Settle EEOC Disability and Retaliation Discrimination Suit
*
DENVER -- Aurora, Colorado-based Wagner Equipment, an industrial machinery and equipment company, will pay $200,000 and provide other relief to settle a lawsuit for disability discrimination and retaliation filed by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the federal agency announced today.
According to the EEOC's lawsuit, Wagner Equipment used unlawful qualification standardswhich screened out an employee with a disability who was attempting to return from work following medical leave. Specifically, the company required the employee to pass a physical fitness test requiring her to repeatedly lift and carry 100 pounds, even though those activities did not accurately reflect the essential functions of her position. Wagner Equipment also failed to reasonably accommodate the employee's disability and retaliated against her for requesting accommodation by refusing to allow her to return to work in December 2021, the suit said.
"We appreciate Wagner Equipment's willingness to enter into an early resolution of this case and to provide training to its employees on disability discrimination, including how to request reasonable accommodations," said Mary Jo O'Neill, regional attorney for the EEOC's Phoenix District. "Employers must ensure that return-to-work requirements reflect the actual demands of the job rather than creating unnecessary barriers to employment."
Such alleged conduct violates the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which requires employers to make reasonable accommodations for disabilities, absent undue hardship. The EEOC filed suit (EEOC v. Wagner Equipment Co., Case No. 1:26-cv-04802-GPG-STV) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its administrative conciliation process.
In addition to paying monetary damages to the affected employee, the two-year consent decree settling the suit requires the company to review existing policies concerning disability accommodation and provide training for employees and management in Colorado.
"Employees returning from medical leave should be evaluated based on their ability to perform the essential functions of their jobs," said EEOC Denver Field Office Director Sherrie Hayashi. "Training supervisors and decision makers on qualification standards, reasonable accommodations, and the interactive process helps ensure that employees with disabilities are evaluated fairly and based on their ability to perform the essential functions of the job."

Il Fornaio to Pay $3 Million in EEOC Sexual Harassment Suit
*
LOS ANGELES -- Il Fornaio (America) LLC, an Italian restaurant chain with 15 locations in California and Nevada, will pay $3,000,000 and provide other relief to settle a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on behalf of a class of female employees, the agency announced today.
According to the suit, supervisors and employees across Il Fornaio's restaurantlocations repeatedly subjected female employees, many of whom were teenagers, to sexual harassment. The harassment included forceful groping in restaurant bathrooms, multiple instances of grabbing female employees' private parts, requests for sexual favors, and explicit references to sexual activities. The female employees complained about the harassment, but Il Fornaio failed to stop it and retaliated against many of the female employees. As a result, several female employees had no choice but to resign.
"Sexual harassment continues to be a widespread issue in the restaurant industry, and during this case, we learned of at least 100 women negatively affected by Il Fornaio's work environment," said Beatriz B. Andre, acting regional attorney for the EEOC's Los Angeles District. "Through this settlement, we hope Il Fornaio will take meaningful steps to prevent sexual harassment and respond promptly and effectively when complaints arise."
The alleged conduct violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits a hostile workplace environment based on sex, including sexual harassment, as well as retaliation against individuals who complain about sexual harassment or engage in other protected activity. The EEOC filed suit (EEOC v. Il Fornaio (America) LLC, et al. Case No. 2:22-cv-05992) in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California after first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through its administrative conciliation process.
Christine Park-Gonzalez, director of the EEOC's Los Angeles District said, "The EEOC will continue to stamp out workplace sexual harassment wherever it occurs. We are thankful to the women who came forward and courageously shared their stories so that the EEOC could work towards bringing Il Fornaio into compliance with Title VII."

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 -- The Federal Trade Commission issued the following news release:
* * *
FTC, States Ask Federal Court to Hold Martin Shkreli in Contempt for Allegedly Violating Lifetime Ban from Pharmaceutical Industry
*
The Federal Trade Commission and seven states today asked a federal judge to hold Martin Shkreli in contempt based on their allegations that he flagrantly and repeatedly violated a 2022 court order that banned him from the pharmaceutical industry.
In a motion and brief filed today, the FTC and its state co-plaintiffs allege that Shkreli, since his release from prisonin May 2022, has been violating the court order by publicly trading in pharmaceutical industry stocks and broadcasting his opinions about the business and management of many pharmaceutical industry companies.
"After a full trial, the court found that Martin Shkreli's conduct drove up prescription drug costs for American patients and blocked the entry of lower-cost generics," said Daniel Guarnera, Director of the FTC's Bureau of Competition. "When judgment is entered by a court, whether it's a settlement or an order following a trial, defendants must fulfill their obligations. Today's action should serve as notice that the FTC will not hesitate to enforce violations of court orders."
The FTC voted unanimously in January 2020 to initiate the case against Shkreli, another individual executive and the companies they founded, Vyera Pharmaceuticals LLC and Phoenixus AG. In 2022, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled that Shkreli organized an illegal anticompetitive scheme to perpetuate a monopoly for the life-saving drug Daraprim, a treatment for a rare, potentially fatal parasitic infection known as toxoplasmosis.
The court found that the anticompetitive scheme executed by Shkreli and his codefendants prevented generic competition and protected their ability to increase Daraprim's price from $17.50 per tablet to $750 per tablet. The court further found that "Shkreli's egregious, deliberate, repetitive, long-running and ultimately dangerous illegal conduct" warranted an industry ban, and the court ordered Shkreli to disgorge over $64 million.
Contempt Filing
The joint motion alleges numerous examples of Shkreli violating the order's lifetime ban by publicly trading in pharmaceutical industry stocks of at least 60 companies and broadcasting online his opinions about the business and management of many pharmaceutical companies. These activities run afoul of the court's 2022 permanent injunction, which banned Shkreli "from directly or indirectly participating in any manner in the pharmaceutical industry," including by "[a]cquiring or holding an Ownership Interest in a Pharmaceutical Company" or "[t]aking any action to directly or indirectly influence or control the management or business of any Pharmaceutical Company," according to the FTC and states' joint motion.
Shkreli has publicized his order violations by livestreaming and posting on numerous social media platforms, including YouTube, X, and Reddit. The motion alleges that, while livestreaming his trades in pharmaceutical industry stocks, Shkreli told his viewers "I'm showing you how to trade and invest in biotech." The motion further alleges that, in another livestream, Shkreli confessed his "magic trick": "It doesn't matter what trades I make because I can always find a couple of biotech stocks to smoke." As alleged in the motion, Shkreli used his livestreams to wage multiple public campaigns to short certain pharmaceutical company stocks based on his prediction that their key clinical trials would fail.
In their contempt filing, the FTC and its co-plaintiff states ask the court for an order to show cause why Shkreli should not be held in civil contempt for violating the lifetime ban imposed by the court and ultimately to issue civil sanctions to force Shkreli to comply with the terms of the court's 2022 injunction.
Sanctions sought in the contempt filing seek to require Shkreli to:
* Divest any pharmaceutical company stocks he currently owns;
* Pay a fine equal to his profits from any pharmaceutical company stock trading (plus prejudgment interest) without the ability to account for offsetting losses; and
* Face clear and escalating consequences for any future violations, including financial penalties and potential incarceration.
The Commission vote to authorize staff to file a civil contempt action against Martin Shkreli was 1-0. FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson is recused. Commissioner Mark R. Meador issued a statement. The motion was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 -- The Federal Trade Commission issued the following news release:
* * *
FTC Sues Operator of Sextortion Relief Scheme for Misleading Consumers into Believing it Would Identify Criminals and End Sextortion Attacks
*
A federal court has granted the Federal Trade Commission's request to temporarily halt the activities of Digital Forensics Corporation LLC and its CEO for allegedly defrauding consumers out of millions of dollars using false and deceptive promises relating to "sextortion assistance services."
Sextortion is a rapidly growing threat to Americans, routinely carriedout by foreign scammers who threaten to publish a nude or sexual image of the victim unless the victim pays the criminal.
In a complaint the FTC alleges that Digital Forensics, along with its owner Dmitry Belkin and several affiliated companies, misled victims of sextortion into paying at least $60 million by falsely claiming that it would provide sextortion assistance services.
"Digital Forensics preys on consumers already in crisis, exploiting victims of sextortion by using fear to pressure them into paying thousands of dollars for services that are never provided," said Christopher Mufarrige, Director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection. "The FTC is committed to protecting consumers from sextortion and other crimes involving non-consensual intimate visual images. That includes taking action against companies that take advantage of consumers experiencing a crisis and engage in deceptive practices that prey on victims' vulnerability and use abusive tactics that exacerbate the harm."
The FTC alleged that Digital Forensics pushed victims to purchase a "Phase 1" package of sextortion assistance services, which was supposed to include tracking the sextortionist's location, communicating with the sextortionist, producing a detailed investigative report and reporting the crime to law enforcement. Despite charging consumers between $1,499 and $20,000, as alleged in the complaint, Digital Forensics, in numerous instances, did not perform the promised services.
After collecting payment for Phase 1, Digital Forensics then pressured victims to pay for "Phase 2" services, which supposedly would include ongoing monitoring of the victims' accounts and reporting sextortion attacks to law enforcement. The FTC alleges Digital Forensics did not follow through on its promises. To hide these failures and maintain its public reputation, Digital Forensics suppressed negative reviews by its customers and generated thousands of fake positive online reviews, according to the complaint.
The FTC's complaint alleges that Digital Forensics uses advertisements on search, video sharing and social media platforms such as Google, YouTube and X to target sextortion victims looking for help. The company allegedly advertises that it can "track down cyber criminals across the world [and] beat them" and "identify [perpetrators] with a high degree of success [and] give law enforcement the evidence they need to make arrests." Instead, Digital Forensics often simply blocked the sextortionist on the victims' social media accounts--which victims can do themselves--created fake chat transcripts, used made-up investigative information and did not contact law enforcement, according to the complaint.
Consumers are told, the FTC alleges, not to pay the sextortionist but instead to contact Digital Forensics "right away" to let the experts "fight back." Digital Forensics also allegedly tells consumers not to block sextortionists online and instead let the company handle it by continuing to communicate with the sextortionist, which is contrary to the advice of the FBI and other law enforcement experts.
Specifically, the FTC alleges Digital Forensics unlawfully:
* Made false promises about its sextortion assistance services: Digital Forensics made false promises including that it would communicate with sextortionists on behalf of the consumer, conduct a "tracking campaign" to gather accurate details on the sextortionist and report the sextortionist's illegal activity to law enforcement to stop the sextortion attack. But the company routinely took little or no action to stop the sextortion attack and faked the data reported to consumers in its "report." When consumers demanded a refund, Digital Forensics failed to honor its own refund policy.
* Conducted a telemarketing campaign that preyed on victims of sextortion: On phone calls with consumers, Digital Forensics' telemarketers use scare tactics tailored to consumers' "pain points" to pressure consumers into paying exorbitant prices for services the company routinely does not deliver. For example, if the victim is a military servicemember, telemarketers warn that the sextortion attack can result in a dishonorable discharge, or if the victim is married, they claim that the sextortionist will target the victim's spouse and in-laws.
* Collected financial information using false statements: Defendants obtained consumers' financial information using false statements about their services and charged consumers for services they never completed.
* Generated fake positive consumer reviews: Defendants misled consumers by using employees based in India to write fake reviews, purchasing positive reviews from Uber drivers who had never bought or used Defendants' services and coercing customers into posting positive reviews before they had actually received any services from Digital Forensics.
The FTC alleges that Belkin, Digital Forensics and affiliated companies violated the FTC Act, the Telemarketing Sales Rule, the Reviews and Testimonials Rule and the Gramm-Leach- Bliley Act.
The Commission vote authorizing the staff to file the complaint was 2-0. The complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio against Belkin, Digital Forensics, 1st All Data Recovery LLC, 1st All File Recovery USA Inc., I & D Belkin LLC, Remote Backup Corp LLC, Digital Cyber Forensics Investigations LLC, Cyber Digital Forensics Response LLC, 1st All Investments LLC, Salon Place LLC, VPR Academy LLC, 21111 Chagrin Investments LLC and 4350 Renaissance LLC.
The FTC thanks the Better Business Bureau Serving Greater Cleveland and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children for their assistance in this investigation.
NOTE: The Commission files a complaint when it has "reason to believe" that the named defendants are violating or are about to violate the law and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest. The case will be decided by the court.
