GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — A federal judge in Grand Rapids has sentenced a suburban Detroit man to a year in prison for conducting a salvage operation at an asbestos-filled building without protecting workers and the environment from the toxic insulating material.

Federal agencies say Judge Robert Holmes Bell also ordered 34-year-old Anthony M. Davis of Canton to pay $168,000 in restitution for violating the Clean Air Act.
