CWA Fines for Natural Gas Pipeline

According to this article in the Register-Guard, a Florida contractor has been ordered to pay $1.5 million in penalties due to violations of the Clean Water Act while constructing a 60-mile natural gas pipeline in 2003.  It goes on to note that penalties were imposed for dirt and sediment discharges to streams and wetlands and despite little evidence of serious environmental harm.  A cautionary tale.
