U.S. District Judge John Preston Bailey in West Virginia made the ruling Wednesday after reviewing a response from outgoing EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. The judge had objected to McCarthy’s response to an earlier order, in a lawsuit by Murray Energy Corp., that the EPA must start conducting the analysis. Bailey ordered the EPA to identify facilities harmed by the regulations during the Obama presidency by July 1. The U.S. Supreme Court has delayed implementation of Obama's Clean Power Plan until legal challenges are resolved. "It is time for the EPA to recognize that Congress makes the law, and EPA must not only enforce the law, it must obey it."
