Description
Description | St. Clair County in Michigan has implemented new public health regulations that impose noise, screening, and decommissioning requirements on large solar farms and grid-scale battery storage projects. These rules require projects to be screened from public view, limit noise emissions, and mandate bonds for decommissioning. The county uses its public health code to justify these restrictions, which has led to a lawsuit from DTE Electric Co., challenging the legality of these rules. |
