SCOTUS to hear interstate pollution case
Source: Christian Science Monitor "On Tuesday, the US Supreme Court [heard] oral arguments in a case that addresses what responsibility states have, or don’t have, in regulating pollution that ends up in other states' skies. Last year, the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit struck down an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule that required 28 upwind states in the South and Midwest to cut ozone and fine-particle emissions. The rule, which was finalized in 2011 but never went into effect, was intended to ease pollution blowing into states in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast." [editor's note: About 80-some years ago, courts barred people from similar suits; will this change any of that? - SAT] (12/10/13)
