Supreme Court of Vermont

State of Vermont v. Ben-Mont Corporation

November 18, 1994163 Vt. 53

Summary

The court held that Vermont's Waste Management Act authorizes criminal prosecution for violations of regulations promulgated by the Agency of Natural Resources under the Act. It rejected the corporation's constitutional claims as inadequately preserved and upheld the fines because they fell within the criminal penalty authorized for each violation and were supported by the record. The court affirmed the judgment.
