HSS sued Molycorp for 1000 penalty dollars per incident, the first court action under new air and water penalties. Larry Gordon, director of environmental services, says the penalties empower environmental enforcement without full departmental action, noting hundreds of warnings issued and a shift in attitude from enforcement being a dirty word to a real tool.

Unions Seek Supreme Court Ruling on Retired Workers Benefits
Organized labor and the federal government urge the Supreme Court to decide that unions can force management to bar gains about benefits for retired employees. The case affects about 190 retirees in Ohio and could influence retirement perks for many workers if upheld. The Cincinnati appeals court previously ruled labor could not insist, by law, that management negotiate benefits for retired workers. The Court’s review timeline remains several weeks away.
