Basika izintambo, bathela i-silicone namabhawodi axegayo - konke ukuze bagcine amageji emvula esifundazwe engenalutho ohlelweni lokwenza imali.Manje, abalimi ababili baseColorado bakweleta izigidi zamaRandi ngokuhlukumeza.
UPatrick Esch no-Edward Dean Jagers II balivuma icala ngasekupheleni konyaka odlule emacaleni okwakha itulo lokulimaza impahla kahulumeni, bevuma ukuthi bavimbe imvula ukuthi ingene kumageji emvula ukuze benze izicelo zomshwalense wezitshalo ezingamanga.Babekwa amacala enkantolo yezobugebengu neyomphakathi.
Bhalisela iphephandaba Lomqeqeshi Wesimo Sezulu futhi uthole izeluleko zokuphila emhlabeni wethu oshintshayo, ebhokisini lakho lokungenayo njalo ngoLwesibili.
Ngaphansi kwezicelo zobugebengu, u-Esch wayalelwa ukuba akhokhe u-$2,094,441 ukuze abuyiselwe futhi uJagers wayalelwa ukuba akhokhe u-$1,036,625.Lezo zimali sezikhokhiwe, kusho okhulumela ihhovisi lommeli wesifunda saseColorado uMelissa Brandon etshela iWashington Post ngoMsombuluko.
Isivumelwano somphakathi esivela ku-whistleblower othintekayo ecaleni sidinga ukuthi i-Esch ikhokhe enye imali eyizigidi ezintathu zamaRandi - amaRandi angu-676,871.74 okuyimbuyiselo, ngamarekhodi asenkantolo - kanye nenzalo engamaphesenti angu-3 ezinyangeni ezingu-12 ezizayo, kusho uBrandon.UJagers usekhokhe imali yakhe eyengeziwe edingekayo engu-$500,000.
Sekukonke, uhlelo lomshwalense lwadla amadoda cishe izigidi eziyisi-6.5 zamaRandi ngaphambi kwezindleko zomthetho.
Ukuvikelwa emvuleni okungajwayelekile kungenye yezinhlobo eziningi zomshwalense wezolimo ohlinzekwa nguMnyango Wezolimo wase-US.Uhlelo lomshwalense wezitshalo lukahulumeni lwakhokhela abashwalensi imali eyizigidigidi ezingama- $ 18 ngezicelo zokulahleka ngo-2022, ngokwesabelomali sohlelo salowo nyaka.
Umshwalense wezitshalo kahulumeni uvamise ukuthengiswa izinkampani zomshwalense ezizimele eziqinisekisa ngokuqondile abahlinzeki kanye nezitshalo zabo, bese ama-feds abuyisela imali yabadayisi abazimele.
Ngohlelo lomshwalense wemvula u-Esch kanye no-Jagers abavunyelwe ukudlala, uhulumeni ulandelela inani lemvula esebenzisa amageji emvula ahlangene.Inani lemali yomshwalense ekhokhiwe linqunywa ngokuqhathanisa amazinga emvula esikhathi esibekiwe nesilinganiso sesikhathi eside sendawo, ngokwamaphepha asenkantolo.
"Abalimi abasebenza kanzima nabafuyi bancike ezinhlelweni zomshwalense wezitshalo ze-USDA, futhi ngeke sivumele lezi zinhlelo zihlukunyezwe," kubhala ummeli wase-US ozinze eColorado u-Cole Finegan esimemezelweni se-plea deal.
Lolu hlelo lwaqala cishe ngoJulayi 2016 lwaya kuJuni 2017 futhi lugxile eningizimu-mpumalanga yeColorado nasentshonalanga yeKansas, abashushisi babhala.
Ukutholwa kokuqala kodaba kwenziwa isisebenzi se-United States Geological Survey ngoJan. 1, 2017, abashushisi babhala.Isisebenzi sathola ukuthi izintambo zikagesi zazinqanyuliwe egejini yaseSyracuse, eKan.
Isikhathi semvula, ungaphuli umthetho ukuze wehlise ingcindezi yezomnotho, singahlinzeka ngegeji yemvula engabizi ukuze isetshenziswe
