BERLIN (Reuters) - A German regional authority said it was preparing to fine Tesla for illegal building activity on the site of its planned new car factory near Berlin.
The environment ministry for Brandenburg, the state that surrounds Berlin and in which the factory will be located, had found that Tesla had constructed tanks on the territory for which it had no authorization, wrote Tagesspiegel newspaper, which first reported the fine.
