SANTA ANA — Kimstock Inc., a Santa Ana maker and distributor of bath and plumbing fixtures, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
The company listed $10 million in debts and $10.8 million in assets in its bankruptcy filing. Among its 1,200 unsecured creditors is the South Coast Air Quality Management District, to which the company owes $100,000 in fines and other charges.
Kimstock was seventh on a 1987 AQMD list of the county’s greatest air polluters.
