(Undated) A judge has ordered a Sergeant Bluff, Iowa Iowa man to pay an $80,000 dollar fine, for illegally burning thousands of railroad ties. John Goldsmith told the Iowa D-N-R he intended to burn thousands of railroad ties on his property. The D-N-R told him multiple times since the year 2000 not to. Goldsmith was also accused of barricading his property to prevent authorities from getting on site. The railroad ties burned for three days in August of 2018.
