A federal lawsuit has accused the operators of the so-called 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention site in Florida of releasing harmful diesel emissions into the Everglades, as activists challenge what they say are violations of the US Clean Air Act.
The complaint, brought by the Center for Biological Diversity, claims the facility relies on more than 200 diesel generators and 100 lighting towers and argues that the 'Alligator Alcatraz detention emissions' pose risks to public health and the fragile wetland ecosystem.
