USEPA—s Underground Injection Control Rule Upheld in Florida
In this case, the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals recently held that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA's) revised underground injection control (UIC) regulations for Class I municipal disposal wells in Florida are an appropriate exercise of administrative rulemaking pursuant to the power granted to the agency under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Miami‐Dade County, several cities, a wastewater treatment facility, and the Sierra Club challenged the new rule on the grounds that the USEPA failed to follow proper notice and comment procedures, that the rule was inconsistent with the language of the SDWA, and that the rule was arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedures Act (APA).
