This infinitesimal tiny midget fine $14,000 was not for the leaks themselves, but because Xcel started pumping contaminated groundwater before it had the necessary permit in place, which it later obtained.

It’s the only fine that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has levied against Xcel over the leaks.

Xcel had already installed and filled more than 20 temporary tanks when MPCA staff informed the company in March of 2023 that adding an additional tank would require a permit because it would raise their total capacity over 1 million gallons (3.8 million liters) to just over 1.4 million gallons (5.3 million liters).
But Xcel began filling the new tank in April before it obtained the required permit, the agency said in a statement.

I'd say evacuate Minnesotans now!
