White House lacks authority to issue NEPA regulations

A federal judge ruled that the White House Council on Environmental Quality does not have the authority to issue binding regulations under the National Environmental Policy Act. The decision, made by U.S. District Judge Daniel M. Traynor, overturns Biden administration regulations and reverts to previous rules. The ruling highlights the need for Congress to formally grant CEQ the authority to issue such regulations.
