SCOTUS to review EPA wastewater rules
EPA Clean Water Act (CWA) wastewater regulations are set to face U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) scrutiny. In the case City and County of San Francisco v. EPA, San Francisco is suing the EPA over generic water quality prohibitions in permitting decisions. “The EPA had urged the Supreme Court to decline the petition, insisting narrative limitations were within its right,” according to Newsweek. On May 28, 2024, SCOTUS agreed to hear the case.
