The owner of a Seattle barrel cleaning company has been convicted of using hidden drains and pumps to dump toxic wastewater into the sewer for years after he had paid a huge fine and had agreed to cease illegally disposing of such waste.

Seattle Barrel collected used industrial and commercial drums and reconditioned and resold them after washing them with a chemical solution. That solution can damage sewer pipes if improperly dumped, prosecutors said. But prosecutors say that instead of properly handling the caustic waste his facility generated, Sanft secretly installed a hidden drain and pump system that continued to pour the dirty water into the sewer.

In 2019, investigators executed a search warrant on the plant after detecting illegal discharge, and found a portable pump connected to a hidden drain that flowed directly into the sewer system.
