On June 3, 2024, a Georgia conservation group notified its intent to sue two U.S. government agencies for failing to properly evaluate the environmental consequences of Hyundai's $7.6 billion electric vehicle and battery plant outside Savannah, Georgia. The group accuses the Army Corps of Engineers of using outdated data and underestimating the project's impact on the region's groundwater supply, while claiming the U.S. Treasury Department disbursed infrastructure funding without necessary environmental reviews. The group has demanded construction halt until updated assessments are completed.
