BOSTON – The owner of a residential and commercial landscaping business operating in southeastern Massachusetts was sentenced yesterday for failing to report approximately $1.5 million in income to the Internal Revenue Service.

According to the Department of Justice, Scott Herzog, 47, of Norwell, was sentenced by US District Court Judge Nathaniel M. Gorton to a year and one day in prison, one year of supervised release and a fine of $100,000. Herzog was also ordered to pay restitution of $499,958 to the Internal Revenue Service. On June 3, 2022, Herzog pleaded guilty to one count of filing a false tax return.

Herzog owns and operates Herzog Landscape Solutions. From 2016 through 2018, Herzog received gross income of at least approximately $4.1 million from landscaping customers but provided his bookkeeper with only partial information about that income from customer payments. Herzog directed customers to pay him personally for jobs and then cashed many of these payments or deposited them into bank accounts unaffiliated with the landscaping business. Herzog then failed to report approximately $1.5 million in these receipts in the tax returns his tax preparer filed on his behalf. As a result of this conduct, Herzog underreported his personal income tax obligations, causing a loss to the Internal Revenue Service of nearly $500,000.

United States Attorney Rachael S. Rollins and Joleen D. Simpson, Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigation in Boston, made the announcement. Assistant US Attorney David M. Holcomb of Rollins’ Securities, Financial & Cyber ​​Fraud Unit prosecuted the case.

Align JV is using chalk excavated from the High Speed ​​2 Chiltern tunnels to create grassland habitats in the Chiltern Hills.

The environmental project on High Speed ​​2’s (HS2’s) largest construction site reached the 1M.m3 milestone this week. The chalk has been laid out around the south portal of the tunnels.

In total, around 2.6M.m3 of chalk will be excavated during the construction of the 16m long tunnels. It will be used to landscape the site, which is set to become a 127ha wildlife haven.

This will include the largest areas of chalk grassland in the Chiltern Hills.

The plans have been developed by HS2’s main works contractor, Align, a joint venture formed by Bouygues Travaux Publics, Sir Robert McAlpine and Volker Fitzpatrick. It is working on the project with its design partners Jacobs, Rendel-Ingerop and LDA Design, which form Align D.

HS2 Ltd’s environment director Peter Miller said: “The south portal project is one of the most important parts of our Green Corridor program to establish better connected, sustainable and biodiverse landscapes along the route of the new railway and will contribute substantially to HS2’s carbon reduction target .”

The two tunnel boring machines (TBMs) – named Florence and Cecilia – working on the Chiltern tunnels are currently around 6.4km into their journey. Align recently also completed the first tunnel cross passage under the Chilterns.

The material the TBMs excavate is mixed with water to form a slurry before being pumped out of the tunnel.

It is then processed at a slurry treatment plant at the south portal site where the flint is removed and water extracted. This leaves a chalk cake which is then laid out on site, together with recycled concrete and aggregates from construction works, in order to create a naturalistic landscape with all the temporary construction buildings removed.

Align D design director Chris Chantler said: “This innovative, multi-discipline project is providing a unique opportunity to create a huge expanse of new grassland using chalk being excavated from the Chiltern tunnels.

“With the first million cubic meters of chalk having already been placed to create the grassland, we are well on the way to creating a landscape which will be both rich in diversity and a place for people to explore and connect with the natural environment.”

Chalk grassland – a type of calcareous grassland – is a habitat of international conservation importance mainly found on limestone and chalk downlands of south east England and the Isle of Wight.

The thin soil is lime rich but low in nutrients, and it holds little water and drains well. According to HS2 Ltd, these conditions encourage a huge variety of smaller herbs and wildflowers and more than 40 plant species can be found in 1m2 of grassland, including some of the UK’s rarest orchids as well as diverse invertebrate populations. Only 700ha of chalk grassland exist across the whole of the Chilterns Area of ​​Outstanding Natural Beauty.

At the Chilterns site, 90ha of chalk grassland will be seeded into re-profiled soil layers. This will sit alongside new areas of woodland, wood pasture and wetlands, including almost 65,000 trees and shrubs of 32 species and nearly 3.5km of new hedgerows.

Field trials are in preparation ahead of final seeding, and planting of trees and shrubs in 2025.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Artificial Turf Market:
The pandemic has affected economies and industries in various countries. The unprecedented rise in the number of COVID-19 cases and the subsequent lockdown of numerous manufacturing facilities have influenced the growth of the various markets. In the Middle East and African countries, the distribution network was significantly disrupted, which affected the sales of artificial turfs. According to Synthetic Grass Warehouse, artificial turf contractors are experiencing gains in sales up to 30% from 2020. Sports field applications represented 63% of the installed turf in 2020 and are anticipated to remain the largest application segment over the forecast period. However, the use of turf in landscape applications is growing at a fast pace and is likely to open growth opportunities for the artificial turf market in the near future. The global marketplace is recovering from its losses. Manufacturers can overcome the demand and supply gap due to the revival of their operations.
