The Environmental Protection Agency is amending their updated Waters of the United States rule to keep consistent with the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Sackett vs. EPA.
The agency made a formal request to stay a pending case in a U.S. District Court in North Dakota saying to wait until the new rule is written.
The lawsuit, led by the American Farm Bureau Federation, says the latest rule is a federal overreach and would be costly for states to comply.
