San Francisco has taken the Environmental Protection Agency to court over rules the city says are 'too vague.'
The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a lawsuit against the Environmental Protection Agency's new water rules.In April, President Joe Biden's administration and the EPA introduced national limits on per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in drinking water. These PFAS, or 'forever chemicals,' have been linked to health concerns such as cancer.
'These generic water quality terms expose San Francisco and numerous permitholders nationwide to enforcement actions while failing to tell them how much they need to limit or treat their discharges to comply with the Act.'San Francisco says the EPA's 'narrative' regulations fall short of the Clean Water Act's requirement to define restrictions.
