Supreme Court Case Could Restrict Federal Environmental Reviews for Energy Projects, Impacting NEPA Regulations and Agency Powers.

A new Supreme Court case, Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, Colorado, is seeking to limit federal environmental reviews for energy infrastructure projects. The case could allow the court to set boundaries on what agencies can consider under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This comes after conservative justices have sought to limit agency powers, including a recent decision limiting the EPA’s ability to address carbon dioxide emissions. Developers have long complained about the resources and time needed to complete environmental reviews, a crucial determination before granting a federal permit to build.
