Federal Appeals Court Upholds Biden-Era Soot Pollution Rule, Rejecting EPA's Reversal Attempt
A US federal appeals court unanimously rejected the EPA's bid to abandon a 2024 rule setting stricter standards for soot pollution, citing the agency's arguments as lacking merit. The ruling keeps in place an annual limit of 9 micrograms of fine particle pollution per cubic meter, aimed at reducing health risks from coal-fired power plants, vehicles, and industrial sites.
