- DC Circuit lets EPA delay stricter emission standards at steel mills
The D.C. Circuit upheld the EPA's decision to delay stricter emission standards for steel mills until April 3, 2027, rejecting challenges from environmental groups. The court found the EPA's extension was justified due to technological infeasibility, aligning with the Clean Air Act. The standards target hazardous pollutants from steelmaking processes, including carbon dioxide emissions.
