\"\"<\/a>EPA\u2019s authority to safeguard human health and the environment is longstanding and well-established. But now there\u2019s a new case before the Supreme Court that threatens it.<\/p>\n

The case was brought by coal companies and their allies, whose efforts to tightly constrict EPA\u2019s ability are not only\u00a0alarming<\/a>\u00a0but also should not even be before the Supreme Court.\u00a0That\u2019s why EDF is participating in the case (West Virginia et al. v. EPA<\/em>) in support of the agency\u2019s clear authority and obligation to reduce climate pollution under the Clean Air Act. We joined other leading environmental groups and trade associations\u00a0to file our merits brief<\/a> in the case. Almost two dozen states and several cities, the federal government, and power companies that provide power to 40 million people in 49 states also filed in support of EPA.<\/p>\n

The arguments made by the petitioners in this case do not articulate an actual, redressable injury. The case before the Supreme Court necessarily lacks this essential ingredient necessary for court review because the rule petitioners take issue with is not currently in effect. In fact, the rule has never<\/em>\u00a0been in effect.<\/p>\n

Put simply, no actual dispute exists.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This case dates back to an Obama administration EPA rule designed to reduce climate pollution from existing power plants \u2013 the Clean Power Plan. Yet, as our brief points out<\/a>, that rule \u201cis not \u2014 and never has been \u2014 in effect.\u201d It was repealed by the Trump administration EPA and replaced with a dramatically weaker rule known as ACE.<\/p>\n

Like the Clean Power Plan, the ACE rule is not in effect. It was rejected by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on the eve of President Biden\u2019s inauguration. Later, the Biden administration EPA announced that it would issue a wholly new rule starting from a clean slate.<\/p>\n

So neither the Clean Power Plan nor ACE is in effect, and neither rule causes or threatens any harm to petitioners. Nor is there even an abstract injury for petitioners to claim. As our briefs states<\/a>, even if the Clean Power Plan were to go into effect,\u00a0\u00a0\u201cthere would likely be \u2018no difference between a world where [it] is implemented and one where it is not.\u2019\u201d That\u2019s because the Clean Power Plan\u2019s emissions-reduction targets have already been met \u2013 and surpassed \u2013 through market-driven trends in the electric sector. Even petitioners acknowledge the Clean Power Plan is a \u201crelic.\u201d<\/p>\n

Because the case centers on a hypothetical rule, the petitioners\u2019 main arguments revolve around what EPA\u00a0might<\/em>\u00a0do in a future rulemaking. This kind of speculative, anticipatory claim is antithetical to the role of United States courts. In fact, according to longstanding Supreme Court precedent, to rule on such a question would be unconstitutional.\u00a0As the federal government made clear in its brief<\/a>, \u201cPetitioners in substance request an advisory opinion about the types of measures a future rule could permissibly contain \u2014 but federal courts are not authorized to render advisory opinions.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Biden administration EPA has stated that it is working to craft a new rule to advance safeguards for climate pollution from power plants. Entities will have the opportunity to litigate that rule once finalized. But petitioners must wait for EPA to act in order to define the issues for judicial review and to avoid involving the Supreme Court in an exercise that would necessarily be centered on hypothetical concerns. Review is inappropriate in this context, and petitioners\u2019 abstract claims cannot be shoehorned into a case that simply lacks an actual \u2018case or controversy\u2019 fit for review as the Constitution requires.<\/p>\n

In our brief<\/a>, EDF and our allies make clear that the sweeping ruling coal companies and their allies seek here stands in stark contrast to the fundamental lack of actual dispute or injury. We strongly oppose petitioners\u2019 efforts to misappropriate this case as a vehicle to put novel restrictions on EPA’s long-held authority, as well as the authority of a host of other expert agencies. We will continue to make clear EPA\u2019s authority to advance and enforce critical, lifesaving safeguards on climate pollution.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in this case on February 28th<\/sup>. EDF has posted all the filings in the case on our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
