On February 12, EPA issued a final rule rescinding the 2009 Greenhouse Gas endangerment finding. This decision to revoke the basis for the majority of EPA’s regulations on GHG emissions, including for industrial and power plants, as well as vehicles, will be fought in court. Significantly, how the agency argues that it is empowered to rescind the finding will have profound impacts for where this case resolves, and what the future of federal climate policy looks like.
