Aramark, the parent company of the Tahoe Queen, has paid the fine for releasing hydraulic fluid into Lake Tahoe last year.

The spill occurred at the Ski Run Marina in South Lake Tahoe on March 5, 2015. Nine gallons leaked from the vessel, with 4 reaching the lake.

Lahontan Regional Water Control Board could have fined the company $10,000. Instead the penalty was $4,983.
