- What it's about
This case addresses whether challenges to the EPA's rejection of state air quality plans must be heard exclusively in the D.C. Circuit Court or in regional circuit courts. The Supreme Court ruled that the Clean Air Act requires such challenges to be reviewed in regional courts when the EPA's action is locally or regionally applicable, even if the agency published multiple state disapprovals in a single notice.
Question presented
Does the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia have exclusive jurisdiction to review an Environmental Protection Agency action that affects only one state or region, simply because the EPA published that action alongside actions affecting other states in a single Federal Register notice?
