SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Juy 14 – Five mid-Atlantic
states sued the EPA earlier
this year under the Clean Air
Act.
On July 14
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge John G. Koeltl held an
oral argument. Inner City
Press covered it.
At issue is
the good neighbor provision
and principle, and pollution
from Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and West Virginia,
referred to in the Complaint
as the "Upwind
States."
The EPA
cited the Cross-State Air
Pollution Rule Update, and a
2019 case about Wisconsin from
the D.C. Circuit.
Judge Koeltl had
a number of questions, which
he has asked be answered by
July 20.
The case is State
of New Jersey et al v. Wheeler
et al., 20-cv-01425 (Koeltl)
