Read Article Federal authorities have fined a North Carolina company almost $56,000 for labor violations linked to a Down East Maine vehicle crash that injured 14 foreign workers four years ago. Workers for Garcia Forest Service, a tree-trimming company, were injured and hospitalized when their passenger van went off the road on U.S. Route 1 in Harrington in November 2017. Police said no one in the van was wearing a seat belt, according to a report from WABI-TV news at the time. It is the second time in seven years that Garcia Forest Service has been sanctioned for labor violations involving foreign workers, according to a news release issued Thursday by the U.S. Department of Labor.
