EPA Sued Over Colorado Mine Catastrophe
The Environmental Protection Agency has been sued for taking over property adjacent to the 2015 Gold King Mine catastrophe in Colorado to stage cleanup equipment and projects, and keeping it, never paying for it or even for renting it. The case seeks millions of dollars in damages and has been submitted to the U.S. Court of Federal Claims by the New Civil Liberties Alliance on behalf of landowner Todd Hennis.
