 "Residents involved in a $4.25 million class action lawsuit settlement against two energy and coke-making plants will officially get their chunk of the settlement after a judge approved it Friday.

The lawsuit was filed by Granite City residents who said their property was damaged by alleged particulate matter and odorous gases from SunCoke Energy Inc. and Gateway Energy and Coke Company. The two companies denied the allegations against them but agreed to settle due to the uncertainty and risk of delaying litigation."
