Companies operating facilities in southeastern Wisconsin received important regulatory news last week. EPA agreed to reconsider its December 2024 rule that reclassified portions of southeastern Wisconsin from “Moderate” to “Serious” nonattainment for the 2015 ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS), and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit placed Wisconsin’s challenge to that rule on hold while EPA conducts its review.
