Ten public interest groups, and Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, are challenging the U.S. Department of Energy’s mandated extension of operations at the J.H. Campbell Power Plant in Port Sheldon Township. The plant, owned by Consumers Energy, was scheduled to shutter at the end of May, but the utility provider was forced to adjust after the DOE issued an emergency order requiring Campbell remain "available for operation" for another 90 days.

Ten public interest groups are challenging an order from the Department of Energy to keep the Campbell Plant open this summer. The plant was scheduled to close in May, but the DOE ordered it remain open for at least 90 days to avoid potential blackouts.

KENT COUNTY — Mark Dykema, a former lakeshore business owner and chairman of Tulip Time, was sentenced to 180 days in jail and 36 months on probation June 18 after pleading no contest to surveilling an unclothed person and using a computer to commit a crime in Kent County. Dykema, 40, is accused of taking upskirt photos of women. A no contest plea does not express admission of guilt, but waives the right to a trial and allows the court to sentence the defendant as if they were guilty.
