The Occupational Safety and Health Administration fined the Moapa Paiute Travel Plaza $54,000 for failing to respond to and correct safety hazards at its facility, according to a report in the Las Vegas Sun . The travel plaza is off I-15 in Moapa, Nevada and is on Moapa Paiute land, which means that the U.S. Department of Labor OSHA has jurisdiction, not the state.
In July OSHA issued six serious safety violations against the company. Total proposed fines were $2,100, but because the company did not respond within 15 days, there were additional fines levied.
