犹他州以3000万美元购买前镁厂，以保护大盐湖、确保水权并开始清理工作。 Utah buys former magnesium plant for $30M to protect Great Salt Lake, secure water rights, and begin cleanup.

在一次破产拍卖中,犹他州以3 000万美元收购了前美国在图埃勒县的镁厂,获得了4 500英亩土地的控制权和宝贵的水权,以帮助保护不断缩小的大盐湖。 Utah has acquired the former US Magnesium plant in Tooele County for $30 million in a bankruptcy auction, gaining control of 4,500 acres and valuable water rights to help protect the shrinking Great Salt Lake. 国家计划捐赠大部分水权,以防止每年多达8 000英亩的取水量,相当于使用300 000套住房。 The state plans to donate much of the water rights to prevent up to 8,000 acre-feet of annual withdrawal, equivalent to the use of 300,000 homes. 该设施是长期受有害污染的污染者,2009年被指定为超级基金所在地。 The facility, a long-time polluter with hazardous contamination, was designated a Superfund site in 2009. 在犹他州承担清理责任的同时,它并没有承担新的超级基金负债,而是继续追逐美国镁及其母公司的成本。 While Utah assumes cleanup responsibility, it is not taking on new Superfund liabilities and continues pursuing US Magnesium and its parent company for costs. 购买使环境补救得以进行,并支持在生态和经济关切中稳定湖泊的努力。 The purchase enables environmental remediation and supports efforts to stabilize the lake amid ecological and economic concerns.
