Will SpaceX rely on the "ooh, we didn't know, or even know enough to hire anybody who would know" defense? Or will it be "DoD cares about us, so will twist arms on our behalf"?
They really had no need to build their factory and launch site dead in the middle of a nature preserve. Its only advantage over someplace between there and Corpus Christi, that I see, is that there was already a road to the beach.
I don't know what happens with fraudulent environmental impact filings in a nature preserve, or how people like the Kochs succeed in weaseling out of them. What happens with SpaceX should be instructive. I imagine most other violators try not to attract attention.
You have, and you know of other companies who have done the same thing and been prosecuted with felonies. I am very interested to know what activity it is you're talking about and what these prosecutions are.
I am not going to copy and paste from there to here.
