A federal judge in North Dakota on Wednesday temporarily blocked implementation of a Biden administration rule establishing protections for seasonal streams and wetlands in 24 states, according to court documents.

An EPA spokesperson said the agency is reviewing Wednesday’s ruling and called the Biden administration rule “the best interpretation” of the Clean Water Act.

geokem7 US courts. Yee-haw.

Gotta say why the Judge ruled the way he did. Your articles doesn't say, where the 'expend unrecoverable resources complying with a rule unlikely to withstand judicial scrutiny' both doesn't come close and raises more questions. Piss poor job you do here Reuters.

It’s sad that the judiciary has turned so partisan, especially since they follow laws. Decisions shouldn’t be judges opinions but factual, based on evidence and the law. Disgraceful

Must be a trump appointed judge because republicans want nothing but the worst for Americans.

America really isn't very smart huh!

Just sad.

Because who needs clean water, right? 🙄

clean water is for communists

More Biden overreach.

Do we the people NOT want clean water!!I do.
