摘要

A federal appeal court is granting EPA broad discretion in its method for designating outlying areas of urban centers in nonattainment for its particulate matter (PM) national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS), an important win for the agency's approach as battles are emerging over EPA's designation process for its 2008 ozone NAAQS. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit Feb. 24 found in favor of EPA in ATK Launch Systems, Inc. v. EPA, dismissing a challenge brought by two Utah counties and a defense contractor to the inclusion of outlying areas in the Salt Lake City nonattainment area for fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The court rejected claims that EPA erred in its nine-factor method for determining the scope of the PM2.5 nonattainment zones. The document is available on InsideEPA.com. See page 2 for details.
