Appeals Court Denies Florida’s Request to Delay Ruling on Federal Wetlands Permitting Authority Stripping

An appeals court in Washington has denied Florida’s request to delay a judge’s order from February that stripped the state of its federal wetlands permitting authority. The three-judge panel stated that Florida had not met the stringent requirements for a stay pending appeal. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection had argued that the judge’s ruling created “irreparable injuries” by placing projects into an “indefinite regulatory limbo.” Federal agencies have not commented on the appeal.
