WOLLMAN, Circuit Judge.

The United States and the State of Nebraska (collectively, the government) brought an enforcement action against STABL, Inc., formerly Nebraska ByProducts, Inc., 1 for violations of the Clean Water Act and the Nebraska Environmental Protection Act. The district court 2 granted partial summary judgment in favor of the government. Following a bench trial of the remaining issues, the district court imposed a civil penalty in the amount of $2,285,874 and denied STABL’s motion for a new trial. We affirm.
