The lone supplier of epoxy used in the construction of the Big Dig tunnel in Boston, Massachusetts was finally charged in court last Wednesday. This is for providing inadequate adhesives used on bolts to secure the tunnel ceiling of the most ambitious and costly road project in the history of the United States. The incident, which happened July 10, last year, has resulted to the death of Milena Del Valle, 39, who was crushed by the concrete panels from the ceiling that subsequently shatter and broke down. Yet, her husband was able to crawl out of the ruins and sustained only minor injuries.
