They go after the little guy cause they know he can’t fight back.

I’ll betcha developers would get a pass because of the income generated by their development.

I’ll betcha developers would get a pass because of the income generated by their development kickbacks they give to politicians. There, fixed now.

They went after a 90 year old man in our area. The property had been in the family for over 100 years. The WETLAND covered an old peach orchard and the area where the original house once stood. In other words, it never was a wetland.

The maps are ambiguous at best and these enviro people keep their jobs with this cr*p".

And yes, the big guys get away with stuff. It's still the old rule...It's who you know!!

The high point on one of these jobs was talking to a Colonel with the Army Corps of Engineers. At the end of the conversation AND winning the discussion, I said: "Thanks Milton". It was a good day.

Don’t bet on it. My Dad bought 200 acres of coastal property for development. Initially we gave concessions for wetlands and conservation easments, nearly 3 acres for every 5 acre parcel for sale, plus nearly 40 acres of untouched land as wetlands. Then he made the mistake of moving a couple of trucks of sand to dig an additional septic tank, originally required by the state. Well, 5 years and 2 million dollars later, (no court case mind you while the development was put on hold for 5 years by the mere threat of legal action by the state), the lawyers and insurance company have finally reached a settlement with the DEP and Civilian Corps of Engineers. Meanwhile the sand is back in the damn hole and the fish have herders!
