An assistant secretary in the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality says he would have levied a heavier fine on Duke Energy than the $25.1 million it was assessed for coal ash violations. The News & Observer of Raleigh reports assistant secretary Thomas Reeder said in court filings that if it had been up to him, the fine would have been "about $50 million."
