A former executive for an Ohio-based civil engineering firm was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for his role in a long-running bid-rigging scheme in North Carolina.
Brent Brewbaker, formerly of Contech Engineered Solutions, was found guilty in February by a jury in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina on six criminal counts including bid rigging, mail fraud, and wire fraud. On Sept. 8, Judge Louise Wood Flanagan sentenced him to report for an 18-month prison term, starting in 90 days.
