No, the fine is not for simple "dumping". Read carefully ~ they ended up getting fined for "dumping without a permit".

Interesting that CT thinks it's OK as long as the state gets paid off.

No doubt there's more to the story ~ I'd look for some "old fashioned" Patriarca crime family involvement here.

Probably just semantics, don't you think?

Sure, you can dump with a permit because to obtain the permit you must submit to certain guidelines that can be measured through inspection - what you're dumping, where you're dumping and in what quantities your dumping. Without a permit, you're dumping who knows what, who knows where, and in who knows what quantities.

No, that is not the case. Most likely the writer is not versed in the laws or something was lost in translation.
