Teck Coal has said it has spent nearly $1 billion since 2011 in an effort to bring selenium under control and plans to spend another $655 million over the next four years.

Teck Coal, a subsidiary of Teck Resources, is to pay $60 million after a judge on Friday agreed to a joint submission from Environment Canada and the company.
