Home » Court upholds EPA’s limits on pollution limits for power plants
A legal challenge to the EPA’s rule limiting mercury and other toxic emissions from power plants was shot down yesterday by the three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
Utilities and states had argued that the rule – known as MATS – was too costly to power companies and consumers and would result in dozens of power plants being forced to close.
