WASHINGTON (KFGO/KVRR) — Dollar General has been hit with $3.4 million in fines after U.S. Department of Labor inspections at nine locations in North Dakota, Maine, Ohio and Wisconsin. Six stores in North Dakota account for $2.5 million worth of fines for 32 violations. The inspections in late 2022 in Casselton, Garrison, Hillsboro, Killdeer, Minot, and Tioga found aisles, emergency exits, fire extinguishers, and electrical panels blocked by stored merchandise, and boxes stacked unsafely. At the Minot store, OSHA inspectors learned at least six employees suffered exposure to toxic vapors after several chemical containers ruptured.
