Background:

Due to continued non-compliance, EGLE and the Michigan Attorney General's Office filed a lawsuit against the landfill in October 2020. The Michigan Attorney General's Office, on behalf of EGLE, finalized a Consent Judgment against Arbor Hills Landfill on March 7, 2022. The Consent Judgment contains a robust compliance plan, Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEPs), and penalties for past violations and stipulated penalties for future violations of the consent judgment.
