The Sierra Club and other environmental groups filed an air pollution lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Wednesday in California Northern District Court. The complaint seeks to compel the agency to address 'loopholes' in the Clean Air Act which allegedly allow certain industrial facilities to circumvent pollution limits amid their 'startup, shutdown and malfunction' periods. The case is 4:21-cv-06956, Sierra Club et al v. United States Environmental Protection Agency.
