Trial to Inside EPA

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is announcing plans to use compensatory mitigation projects as a way to potentially offset losses of aquatic resources and wetlands due to the Supreme Court’s Sackett decision, a move which lawyers say is sure to prove highly controversial and is likely to face a legal challenge.

From Inside PFAS Policy

The White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has completed its review of EPA’s final rule to regulate PFAS in drinking water, clearing the way for the agency to set first-time enforceable limits for up to six of the thousands of chemicals in the class.

The railroad industry is urging a federal district court to rule on the remaining claims in its pared-down challenge to the California air board’s rule requiring emission cuts from existing locomotives, pushing back on the board’s call for the court to dismiss the remaining claims or stay the case until EPA acts on its request for a Clean Air Act (CAA) waiver.

From Climate Extra

Environmental justice (EJ) advocates are pushing EPA to quickly issue stringent greenhouse gas limits for existing natural gas-fired power plants as the agency seeks early input for a planned rulemaking on the topic, arguing the forthcoming standards must also include a robust EJ analysis and a cumulative impacts analysis (CIA).

EPA remains on track to sign its sweeping air toxics rule regulating much of the organic chemical and polymers manufacturing sector by March 29, likely with few changes from the proposed version, environmentalists and agency officials say, clearing the way for new limits and fenceline monitoring requirements for ethylene oxide (EtO) and a suite of other previously unregulated chemicals.
