Federal court reinstates
water regulation rule
Rule was
suspended
under Trump
states, including Washington,
Oregon and California.
The court’s decision is the
result of a motion for sum-
mary judgment brought by
10 conservation groups rep-
resented by the Southern
Environmental Law Center.
“We are thrilled the court
rejected this administration’s
blatant attempts to under-
mine safeguards that are crit-
ical to our nation’s welfare
without being accountable
to the American people,”
Geoff Gisler, senior attorney
with the law center, said in a
statement.
Agricultural groups, how-
ever, see things differently.
The American Farm
Bureau Federation called
the ruling “misguided” and
maintains the WOTUS rule is
overbroad, vague and illegal.
“Today’s court ruling cre-
ates enormous regulatory
uncertainty and risk for farm-
ers, ranchers and others in the
26 states that are not already
protected from the unlawful
2015 rule by previous court
decisions,” Zippy Duvall, the
group’s president, said in a
statement.
The court was wrong to
invalidate the administra-
tion’s decision that had sim-
ply delayed the effective date
of the WOTUS rule while
the administration works to
develop a new regulation, he
said.
While that work contin-
ues, the group is urging the
administration to take action
By CAROL RYAN

Capital Press
A federal court in South
Carolina has reinstated the
controversial 2015 Waters
of the United States rule that
expanded U.S. Environmen-
tal Protection Agency and
Army Corps of Engineers
jurisdiction under the Clean
Water Act.
U.S. District Judge David
Norton on Thursday ruled the
Trump administration failed
to comply with rule-mak-
ing requirements under the
Administrative
Procedure
Act in suspending rule.
Norton ruled that while
different
administrations
may implement different
regulatory priorities, they
must comply with proce-
dural requirements. Specif-
ically, the government pro-
vided no “reasoned analysis”
for suspending the rule and
no “meaningful opportunity”
for public comment, Norton
stated.
The judge enjoined the
suspension rule nationwide.
But two federal courts — one
in North Dakota covering 13
states, and one in Georgia
covering 11 states — have
blocked implementation.
The rule now applies in 26

in court to limit the scope of
the district court’s decision to
South Carolina.
The National Cattlemen’s
Beef Association said the
court’s ruling underscores
the urgent need to finalize the
repeal of the 2015 WOTUS
rule.
“The South Carolina
court has effectively brought
WOTUS back from the dead
in 26 states, creating a zom-
bie version of the 2015 rule
that threatens the rights of
farmers and ranchers across
the country,” Scott Yager,
the association’s chief envi-
ronmental counsel, said in a
statement.
The Oregon Farm Bureau
also issued a statement, say-
ing EPA could now force
farmers and ranchers to apply
for a costly permit to do even
the most basic work, such as
plowing, planting and apply-
ing pesticides and fertilizers
on dry fields.
They could also be hit
with enormous fines and friv-
olous lawsuits, Mary Anne
Cooper, the farm bureau’s
public policy counsel, said.
“The 2015 WOTUS rule
goes far beyond congres-
sional intent and the lawful
bounds of the Clean Water
Act as articulated by pre-
vious Supreme Court deci-
sions,” she said.
The Oregon Farm Bureau
is urging the Trump admin-
istration to permanently
repeal the rule as quickly as
possible.
