Other than as set forth below and in Note 15—Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein, there are no pending material legal proceedings to which we are a party or to which our property is subject.
In 2016, as part of a hazardous waste enforcement campaign by the California Attorney General’s Office and local district attorneys, Unified Grocers received a subpoena from the Yolo County District Attorney regarding hazardous waste management and storage at its Stockton and Commerce, California distribution centers. We have provided requested documents and cooperated fully with the investigation. On May 24, 2018, the District Attorney toured the Stockton distribution center and generally found the distribution center to be in compliance, and minor items noted regarding labeling have been addressed.
