An employee of NPS saw World Class Courts employees washing out 55 gallon drums of paint and illegally dumping it into a storm drain on the south side of the tennis facility. He told them that dumping into the storm drain was illegal and a violation of their work permit.

Mr. Papa spoke with the tournament director Dan Laufer and the owner of the court painting business, Matthew Magner, and explained why they were not permitted to wash paint down the storm drain. He explained that the dumping violated their permit terms through NPS…

This was recorded in documents that were received under a FOIA request.  [/quote]
