Court of Appeals: EME Homer City Generation, L.P. v. Environmental Protection Agency, et al.

On August 21, 2012, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued its ruling on CSAPR, concluding:

"We vacate the Transport Rule and the Transport Rule FIPs and remand this proceeding to EPA. EPA must continue administering CAIR pending the promulgation of a valid replacement."

On January 24, 2013, the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit denied EPA's petition for rehearing en banc of the Court's decision.
