Abstract
- The District of Columbia Court of Appeals ruled in May 14, 1999, that the EPA should set aside its pollution rule implemented in 1997. The decision is a major victory for the construction and construction equipment industries since the regulation would have a great impact on road construction projects. The 1997 EPA regulation tightened the air quality standards for ground-level ozone and particulate matter from 0.12 parts per million (ppm) of ozone measured over an hour to 0.08 ppm over eight hours.
