Noll Inc. wants the regional water board to take accountability for wrongfully accusing it of contaminating groundwater
In the last four years, the Nolls have spent almost half a million dollars on consultants, investigatory reports, water bottles and filtration systems, well testing, and more. Starting on July 31, 2019, the family lived under constant threat from the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board: a fine of $5,000 a day for not complying with a cleanup and abatement order for pollution that the Nolls maintained from the beginning wasn’t their fault. … This summer, the water board finally rescinded its order against them, acknowledging the Nolls’ “time and resources to provide safe drinking water to the residents of the Buckley Road community” in its July 2023 notice to the Nolls but not much else.
