EPA case headed to Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court will hear arguments in February on whether the Environmental Protection Agency can continue enforcing its anti-air-pollution “good neighbor” rule in 10 states, an effort to restrict smokestack emissions from power plants and other industrial sources that burden downwind areas with smog-causing pollution. The high court put off a decision on whether to halt enforcement of the rule, allowing it to stay in effect at least until after it hears arguments during its February session. The rule is being challenged by three energy-producing states, Ohio, Indiana and West Virginia as well as industry groups and individual businesses.
