United States Ninth Circuit


Native Village of Kivalina IRA Council v. U.S. Envtl. Prot. Agency, 11-70776

A petition for review of a decision by the United States Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Appeals Board's order denying review of certain challenges to a permit authorizing the discharge of wastewater caused by the operation of a lead and zinc mine, is denied because the EAB correctly concluded that petitioner had not satisfied the procedural requirements to obtain review under 40 C.F.R. section 124.19(a) in demonstrating why the EPA's responses to comments were clearly erroneous or otherwise warranted review.
