United States DC Circuit


CRETE CARRIER CORP. v. EPA, 02-1089, 02-1223, 03-1053

Petitioners lack standing to challenge the Agency's refusal to reconsider the 2004 Standard for nitrous oxide and nonmethane hydrocarbon emissions from "heavy heavy-duty" diesel engines. Repeal of the 2004 Standard would in no way affect the obligations of engine manufacturers, due to Consent Decrees that independently require them to meet the 2004 emissions limits, and due to the looming 2007 Standard.
