U.S. regulators have concluded a monthslong review of their environmental permit for Hyundai’s $7.6 billion electric vehicle plant in Georgia, finding that no changes are needed.
The Army Corps of Engineers agreed to revisit the permit last August after a conservation group threatened to sue. The Ogeechee Riverkeeper group said the agency failed to consider potential impacts to the region's main drinking water supply from the factory using up to 6.6 million gallons (25 million liters) daily.
