In consolidated cases challenging the propriety of various actions taken by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Clean Air Act with respect to Montana air quality, petitions for review of the agency actions are denied, where the EPA did not act arbitrarily or capriciously or abuse its discretion by making a State Implementation Plan (SIP) Call that preceded a formal revision of the SIP governing sulfur dioxide emissions, by disapproving portions of the revised SIP, or by promulgating the requirements set forth in the Federal Implementation Plan for sulfur dioxide emissions.
