The complaint alleges that Rob Yundt violated the Clean Water Act at two different properties in WasillaPublished: Oct. 10, 2023 at 3:09 PM AKDTWASILLA, Alaska - Matanuska-Susitna Borough Assembly member Rob Yundt has agreed to pay a hefty fine imposed by the Environmental Protection Agency for multiple violations of the Clean Water Act at two separate properties in Wasilla — one on Wasilla Lake and the other on Cottonwood Lake.
“The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires documentation of permitting actions executed under its authorities to ensure that USACE has appropriately followed its own regulations in the permitting process and to ensure that the public is notified of authorized work that may impact wetlands and waterways of the United States,” John Budnik, a public affairs specialist for USACE Alaska District, said in a written statement.
According to Yundt, a meeting between him, the realtor for the Cottonwood Lake property, and a representative from the Army Corp of Engineers was had “to make sure they didn’t have any concerns.” As for the Wasilla Lake property, Yundt stated that he placed rip rap — a type of rock commonly used along shorelines — in the water to prevent erosion from wakes formed by boats and jet skis.
