In December, the Environmental Protection Agency ordered a Texas-based company to halt a manufacturing process that used toxic chemicals. That ban has been overturned.
“The court did not dispute EPA’s underlying decision that this is a danger to human health. What they did was say it’s not a new use, which I think is wrong…but this case isn’t over by any stretch,” said Kyla Bennett, a former EPA official who now works for the nonprofit Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility.
