LONDON (WKOW) -- BP has paid more than $12 million in claims to
drivers who bought bad gasoline, distributed in Wisconsin, Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio.
The London-based oil company recalled almost
five million gallons of gas in August, saying it was incorrectly
formulated.
Earlier in the week, BP paid a historic settlement with the U.S.
Department of
Justice to resolve some of its liability from the 2010 oil spill in the
Gulf of Mexico that was the biggest
oil spill in U.S. history.
The settlement was $4.5 billion,
including a record $1.26 billion criminal
fine, to end all criminal charges and settle U.S. securities claims
stemming from the oil rig explosion and resulting oil spill that killed
11 men
and spewed an estimated 4.9 million barrels of crude into the Gulf.
