For example, McNeil is located not far from me. Before they re-did Rt. 309 with sound barriers, etc, you could see the McNeil facility from that highway just before you get to the PA Turnpike. With the consent decree, they eventually had to rip it all out and rebuild the entire lab. They also had to re-do the Puerto Rico plant, which is where most of their OTC products are made.
