The agency was preparing enforcement proceedings against Peach when he signed the agreement Dec. 5 and paid the fine.
The late contribution was a $20,000 personal loan he made to his campaign in May after he filed for the position.
Peach also filed three late PDC reports Sept. 19 that accounted for $10,970 in campaign expenditures.
Peach won re-election in November to the Port Angeles-West End District 3 position over Democrat Mike Doherty.
