Other Events. |
On December 18, 2007, Avionics Specialties, Inc. (“Avionics”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Aerosonic Corporation (the “Registrant”), issued a press release announcing that it is conducting an environmental site assessment at its plant located in Earlysville, Virginia which is closing at the end of this month. Avionics conducted initial environmental testing as part of its due diligence process undertaken in preparation of the sale of the Earlysville property. Results from that on-site testing detected the presence of chlorinated solvents in soil and groundwater on the property. Based on Avionics’ ongoing investigation, including interviews with long-term and former employees, and research of the company's files, these chlorinated solvents were not used by Avionics. Further testing is being undertaken to define the extent of this contamination and the proper course of action for remediation.
