(The article "Cleveland-Cliffs To Spend More Than $100M To
Reduce Emissions As Part of DOJ Deal" at 2:32 p.m. ET incorrectly
stated Cleveland-Cliffs will spend more than $100 million to reduce
emissions under a modified consent decree. The corrected version
follows.)
By Ben Glickman
Cleveland-Cliffs entered into a modified agreement with federal
agencies that address air emissions at the company's Dearborn,
Mich., plant.
The agreement with the Justice Department and Environmental
Protection Agency, disclosed Thursday, amends a 2015 consent decree
requiring the company to implement measures to reduce its visible
air emissions.
The updated agreement solidifies Cleveland-Cliffs' requirement
to spend over $100 million on the reduction of visible air
emissions, as well as manganese and lead. The agencies said that
Cleveland-Cliffs has already performed much of the work.
Cleveland-Cliffs said it has already spent over $100
million.
The agencies said the company will pay a civil penalty of
$81,380 to the Michigan government for violations of its permitted
limits on opacity and lead and manganese emissions, and
Cleveland-Cliffs will contribute about $244,000 toward supplying
residents with home air purifiers.
