Court rejects EPA air pollution revision
JOHN HEILPRIN

WASHINGTON -
A federal appeals court Friday rejected what it called a Bush
administration attempt to "pull a surprise switcheroo" by weakening
the government's authority to monitor air pollution from power plants,
refineries and factories.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia annulled the
Environmental Protection Agency's revisions of air pollution
monitoring requirements last year.
The court's action returns for the time-being a stricter, Clinton-era
standard that allows EPA and states to require more monitoring from
plants when they renew their operating permits every five years.

Wrong it is being appealed, hence the clinton era standard is still not
being used.
