The owner and operator of the cargo ship responsible for the Baltimore bridge collapse have agreed to pay over $102 million to settle a U.S. lawsuit focused on cleanup costs. However, this settlement does not cover bridge reconstruction damages, which could reach nearly $2 billion. The Justice Department's lawsuit claims inadequate maintenance led to the ship losing power and crashing into the bridge, resulting in the deaths of six men and significant environmental impact. Both companies deny liability but have agreed to cover the cleanup expenses.
