the State, county, city, government agency will be fined. Just like Big companies get fined. The state didn't do anything. Big companies didn't do anything. The PEOPLE that run them are responsible and need to be fined or jailed or whatever.

"The state has already been sanctioned twice..." Ooh! Big Deal. Fine and sanction those in charge and the problem may be stopped. Fine or sanction the state and nothing will change. When the governor, mayor, county commissioners, department heads and the rest of them who are responsible for causing the problem or doing nothing are personally hit with big fines and sanctions, then things will change for the better.
