Montage Healdsburg resort developer fined record $6.4 million for water violations
Santa Rosa Press Democrat –
State water quality regulators have fined the developer of Montage Healdsburg, the ultra-luxury resort set to open Saturday, more than $6.4 million for environmental violations tied to hotel construction during the stormy winter months of late 2018 and early 2019. The fine — the largest environmental penalty of its kind on the North Coast — was prosecuted by the State Water Resources Control Board and decided Friday by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board after an eight-hour virtual hearing.
