Groups Charge New EPA Rule Loopholes Violate Clean Air Act

A lawsuit filed late last week charges that the Bush
administration's finalized rule regulating toxic air emissions
for industrial boilers violates the Clean Air Act, and fails to
protect the public from hazardous pollutants.

The suit was filed by Earthjustice on behalf of the
Environmental Integrity Project (EIP), Sierra Club and Natural Resources Defense Counsel (NRDC).

The new EPA rule is supposed to regulate hazardous air emissions
from the nation's 58,000 boilers. But environmental groups
charge that under its approved "no control" standards, there
will be no required emission reductions for benzene, mercury and
other toxins. ......
