This Sept. 14, 2020 photo shows shows a Duke Energy natural gas-fired electric power plant on Sutton Lake in Wilmington, N.C. It went online in 2013 and replaced a coal-fired plant that had polluted the lake with coal ash. It would provide a source of steam to generate electricity and a place to cool hot water from an adjacent coal-fired plant. Sutton Lake became popular with boaters and anglers, yielding bass, crappie, bluegill and other panfish. But environmental groups challenging the Trump rule in court say it opens up reservoirs like Sutton Lake to similar abuse.

INDIAN HARBOUR BEACH, Fla. – A former firefighter has won a $40,000 settlement in a lawsuit claiming racial discrimination and workplace retaliation against the Indian Harbour Beach Volunteer Fire Department and the city of Indian Harbour Beach, according to News 6′s news partner Florida Today. Tom sued the fire department and the city of Indian Harbour Beach in August in U.S. District Court in Orlando. Founded in 1965, the Indian Harbour Beach Volunteer Fire Department is a nonprofit corporation that has purchased fire trucks, thermal imagery cameras, automated external defibrillators and other equipment over the years. Amid the lawsuit, a fire department operational review revealed the agency did not have liability insurance, Ryan told the Indian Harbour Beach City Council during its Jan. 14 meeting. What's more, the department's bylaws prohibit the use of donations or fundraising revenues for legal defense or liability insurance costs.
