This is a WIN! In an 8-0 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court limited NEPA’s reach, easing rules for infrastructure like Utah’s Uinta Basin Railway. The Court ruled agencies only need to assess direct—not downstream—environmental effects. Justice Kavanaugh wrote NEPA is meant to guide, not block, projects. This ruling helps fast-track energy and infrastructure development, boosts U.S. energy independence, and curbs legal challenges based on indirect environmental concerns.
