Big River Steel Seeks Dismissal of Nucor Lawsuit
Written by Sandy Williams
Big River Steel has asked the Arkansas court to dismiss a federal lawsuit by Nucor Corp aimed at preventing construction of the new mill.
In documents filed Friday, Big River steel called the suit by Nucor “a scorched earth campaign.” Nucor claims that Big River Steel’s mill will violate the Clean Air Act, an allegation that Big River says is unfounded because the mill is not built or operable yet.
