Merrick Garland on Environment

	Merrick Garland on Environment

Supports EPA's anti-haze regulations

On environmental law, Judge Garland has in a number of cases favored contested EPA regulations and actions when challenged by industry, and in other cases he has accepted challenges brought by environmental groups. Several of the decisions gave rise to disagreements among the court's members.

[For example, in the case] American Corn Growers Ass'n v. EPA, (2002) Garland dissented from majority opinion upholding industry challenge to part of EPA's anti-haze regulations.
