Court Voids EPA Mercury Rules:
http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2008_02_03-2008_02_09.shtml#1202483305


   The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit vacated the Bush
   Administration's controversial regulations governing mercury emissions
   from power plants this morning. This is a big loss for the
   Administration and a big win for the states and environmentalist
   groups that challenged the rule. The decision in New Jersey v. EPA is
   [1]here. I'm crashing on some deadlines, but I hope to have more to
   say about the decision later today or over the weekend.
