Okla. AG appeals US
court's regional haze ruling
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt
said Tuesday he is asking a federal appeals court for a new hearing in the
state's regional haze case against the Environmental Protection Agency.
A three-judge panel of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 2-1
in July that the EPA has the authority to implement its own plan to limit
sulfur dioxide emissions by coal-fired generating plants.
The ruling came in a lawsuit by Oklahoma Gas and Electric Company
that alleged the EPA rule is more stringent than the state's preposed plan
and that implementing it would usurp state authority. The EPA denied
Oklahoma's proposed plan to reduce emissions.
Utility officials say the federal plan would increase utility rates for
Oklahomans by 13 percent to 20 percent over three years.
Pruitt said he wants the case reheard by all of the appeals court's active
judges, not just a three-judge panel.
"Our appeal for a rehearing before the full 1 Oth Circuit gives us an
opportunity to continue the fight to preserve the state's ability to create
an Oklahoma solution to address regional haze," Pruitt said. "Regional
haze is about improving visibility, not about health."
The federal regional haze rule requires agencies to work together to
improve visibility at national parks and wilderness areas by 2064. The
10th Circuit stayed implementation of the federal plan in June 2012.
"The Clean Air Act clearly gives states a primary role in implementing
regulations to address regional haze," Pruitt said. "Oklahoma leaders
crafted a commonsense plan to meet the goals of the Clean Air Act with-
out imposing unnecessary rate hikes on Oklahomans. The EPA was
wrong to ignore the Oklahoma plan and impose a federal plan."
