Plea in Amherst wetlands case nets $250,000 fine by developer Huntress

An Amherst developer will pay a $250,000 fine under a plea agreement ending a nine-year court fight over allegations that it illegally filled in wetlands and cut down trees.
Acquest Development stopped well short of admitting that it violated the Clean Water Act , but the company did plead guilty to violating a court-ordered injunction against work being done at the vacant Transit Road site.
