MOE Cracks down on Resort

A resort on Lake of the Woods has been fined for illegally disposing of waste.

Big Narrows Resort pleaded guilty to one violation under the Environmental Protection Act for burning waste.

The MOE says an inspection found an incinerator containing plastic bags filled with garbage from the resort.

The site has been given approval to burn only clean wood, brush and cardboard.

The company has been fined 25 hundred dollars and a victim surcharge fee.
