DTE Energy must pay $100M for Clean Air Act violations at Zug Island, causing 98 premature deaths.
A federal court has ordered DTE Energy and its subsidiaries to pay a $100 million penalty for violating the Clean Air Act by exceeding sulfur dioxide emission limits at the EES Coke facility on Zug Island from 2019 to 2022.
The court found the companies liable for health harms including asthma, heart attacks, and an estimated 98 premature deaths, citing their control over operations and failure to install required pollution controls.
The ruling mandates a $20 million investment in community health projects through a resident-led committee and requires the companies to reapply for permits with stricter pollution standards.
DTE plans to appeal the decision.
