The Nebraska Farm Bureau says the nation’s high court can limit EPA’s authority when regulating the Waters of the U.S. when reviewing a ruling next spring.
The U.S. Supreme Court will review the 9th Circuit’s ruling in the Sackett vs. EPA case to determine if lower court used the proper tests to determine if wetlands were truly “waters of the United States” under the Obama-era Clean Water Act.
Director of National Affairs Jordan Dux tells Brownfield expanding what types of wetlands qualify under the Clean Water Act creates uncertainty because it affects the daily operations of a farm and ranch.
