Washington Is Fining Him $4,000 a Week… Because He Quit Farming
The farm is gone.
Washington is still charging him $4,000 every week.
On August 21, the Washington Attorney General's Office notified Rogers that Ecology considers another $12,000 in stipulated penalties already due under the settlement he signed in June — and that total will keep rising by at least $4,000 every seven days.
One of the reasons? Ecology says he failed to hire a farm-planning professional.
There is no farm left to plan.
This is the latest development in the long-running battle between Rogers and the Washington Department of Ecology. After a $204,000 penalty, disputed wetland claims, an independent delineation that found zero percent wetlands in key areas, and a settlement that assumed the farm would continue… Rogers walked away.
The state did not.
