Chesapeake Appalachia fined for wetlands damage in West Virginia
A federal judge fined Chesapeake Appalachia 600000 and ordered two years supervised release after it pled guilty to three Clean Water Act violations for discharging 60 tons of crushed stone into Blake Fork and spreading material to build a road in Wetzel County during 2008. The plea avoids criminal charges on related impoundments while a new environmental task force coordinates enforcement and training.
