Don’t shove him here we don’t need drilling fluids in our sewage system either.
I feel like they dropped two 0s off what the fine should be.
Unless it’s doing substantial harm to the company’s bottom line, and at least a few execs go to jail, this is just another line item for doing business.
This. Need harsher consequences
I mean if you were charged like $2 if you got caught speeding 30mph over the limit, would you feel like you need to stop? Hell, a better analogy is probably what, 5 cents?
More like if you were able to charge a $5000 higher delivery fee for being fast and get charged $2 for speeding, and they wait til you are finished with the delivery to mail you the ticket.
And this is why dayfines are fair and a food idea.
Especiqlly if there is no upper limit on how expensive a single dayfine can be.
Dumping drilling fluids into man holes is one of my favorite things to do
Sounds Boring
And you know that fine is nowhere near the cost of proper cleanup, let alone the cost of ecological damage
