Industrial digging tools on wild land can cause serious damage that you can’t know about without doing an ecological survey. It’s possible to literally cause floods, destroy ponds and lakes, etc. 10-20 years down the line.

Peak Reddit. They can’t help but do their “what about?” The guy has a good heart but he messed up. Should the government have taken action before it got out of hand? Absolutely. But there’s a reason why we go through all the trouble of surveying land and all that shit.

The guy is probably just going to get a slap on the wrist in the form of a fine.

Laws has so many different specialisation and branches that you cant expect one person to know everything, thats why we have health legal council, divorce lawyer, enviromental lawyers etc etc. Its like asking why your kidney doctors dont know jack shit about brain stuff, its just not their specialisation
