An order requires Ameren Missouri to spend $61 million to mitigate Clean Air Act violations and 14 years of unpermitted SO₂ emissions at its Rush Island power plant. $25 million funds HEPA filters for 125,000 low-income households; $36 million for zero-emission school buses or alternative energy efficiency projects. The original CAA compliance order dates to a 2017 ruling upheld on appeal.
