Second lawsuit filed against operators of 2 Mid-Michigan dams
Fox 2 News at 10:00 p.m.
Both the Edenville and Sanford dams failed this week, flooding the communities of Sanford and Midland. This caused many homes and businesses to be destroyed.
The attorneys filing suit say the flooding was preventable, and the defendants refused to pay for much needed repairs.
The flooding forced the evacuation of 11,000 people and left both Wixom Lake and Sanford Lake virtually empty.
