"[T]he U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has held that, under [the Multiemployer Pension Plan Amendments Act of 1974 (MPPAA)], a MPPAA employer includes any entity that is obligated to contribute to a plan as either a direct employer or in the interest of one. Adopting this consensus definition of other circuit courts, the court upheld a potential withdrawal liability award in an amount more than double the amount the contractor earned for seven-plus years' work on the related project."
