The Supreme Court on Thursday issued a ruling narrowing the federal government’s authority regulating bodies of water and effectively upending a Biden administration policy that recently went into effect.The high court’s unanimous 9-0 decision, which was delivered by Justice Samuel Alito, rejected the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) broad definition of Waters of the United States (WOTUS). The case centered on Michael and Chantell Sackett, two Idaho residents whom the EPA prohibited from building a home near a wetland years ago, citing the Clean Waters Act (CWA) of 1972.
