Home » Cattlemen argue that dust should not be in Clean Air Act
WASHINGTON – The District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments on Monday on the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association’s (NCBA) appeal of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) rule to regulated dust under the Clean Air Act.
“NCBA supports dust control measures, and our producers carry them out every day of the year,” explains Tamara Thies, chief environmental counsel for NCBA. “But this rule would require an unattainable level of dust control, which could force producers to sell cattle to comply.”
