Puna's geothermal plant nearly $24,000 Fine

[pahoated]

This is a health safety violation from the State Department of Health, not a criminal violation, and the fine is to be paid to DEH which will then go into the general fund. It does motivate Ormat to do a more thorough job, seems like their safety backup valves are always failing. All the money spent on studies and trying to set up an elaborate health claim fraud could have bought a lot of monitors.
