"The EPA fined Otter incorrectly. Just because the government says you did
something wrong, doesn't mean you did."

The Wayward West
by Ali Macalady And Karen Mockler
Idaho Lt. Gov. Butch Otter can't stay out of hot water. The Environmental
Protection Agency recently socked Otter with an $80,000 fine for dredging
2.7 acres of wetlands and a stream channel without a permit. It was his
third EPA violation since 1992. Otter told the Idaho Statesman he accepted
responsibility for failing to secure permits, but blamed state and federal
regulators for a "godforsaken" permit process. The four-term lieutenant
governor has announced he wants to succeed retiring Rep. Helen Chenoweth,
R-Idaho, who has promised not to seek another term.

Seem to me that Butch Otter is not only being unlawful, but arrogant as
well.
But, then, you make the call.
