Feds fine Boyce Hydro Power for Midland-area dam safety violations
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has fined Boyce Hydro Power LLC $15 millon for numerous dam safety violations at three of the company’s hydroelectric projects in Midland and Gladwin counties, the agency announced Thursday.
Boyce Hydro owned multiple dams in the Midland area that collapsed in May of 2020 and caused massive property damage, emptied lakes and caused the evacuation of 10,000 homes. The damage occurred during historic rains that breached the Edenville Dam on May 19 by punching through the earthen embankment of the dam to send a surge of water down the Tittabawassee River. The surge overwhelmed the Sanford Dam and flooded the Midland area.
