Even if it was done on private land, there may be a state law

that require the owner of the land to do certain things or not do certain things in this case for any waterway designated a watershed or other similar environmental designations on the owner's property. For example, I believe VA at one time had a law on its books that required farmers to do their best to limit the amount of manure ended up in waterways, particularly ones designated a watershed, on their property or ran through their property because of the environmental impact it could have on the rest of the waterway that comes after the farmer's land.

That looks more like a ditch than a creek ** -- Baltimore Hokie 08/26/2021 9:37PM

I don’t get the fines. The idiot cleared the creek and any parts -- fordham 08/26/2021 12:26PM

The fine is a little excessive. -- EDGEMAN 08/26/2021 12:28PM

Why? Wasn't that private land? I bet cows muddy up creeks worse.... -- HokieSignGuy 08/26/2021 10:40AM

Article suggests it was public property. And a watershed. ** -- ModerateHokie 08/26/2021 10:43AM

If it was public property, then lay it on em... hes an idiot. ** -- HokieSignGuy 08/26/2021 10:44AM

Even if it was done on private land, there may be a state law -- VTHokie2000 08/26/2021 11:00AM

Oh, I believe that. Just like you can't put a dam in a creek just cause -- HokieSignGuy 08/26/2021 11:04AM

They may be an overreach on the surface. However, if you unpack -- VTHokie2000 08/26/2021 11:17AM

Yes, unless Sheriff Little is chasing them ;-) ** -- VTHokie2000 08/26/2021 11:20AM

Can you import & release beavers to build dams? ** -- EDGEMAN 08/26/2021 11:08AM

As far as I know what you do with beavers is your business ** -- HokieDan95 08/26/2021 11:17AM

To this day there's public road in my home county that goes through a river ** -- HokieDan95 08/26/2021 10:55AM

Exactly. Tilled land near creeks, farmers driving tractors therough them** -- HokieDan95 08/26/2021 10:43AM

What BS ** -- HokieDan95 08/26/2021 09:58AM
