Case Overview

Rhode Island and Connecticut sued the Department of the Interior of the halting of the Revolution Wind project, a wind energy facility previously permitted by the federal government.

The Application

History

The DOI's decision to halt a previously-federally-permitted wind energy project triggered APA review to determine whether the agency adequately explained its reversal of the prior approval and whether it followed proper procedural requirements in doing so.

The Conclusion

The case was decided by the court on the merits, with the determination of whether the DOI's halting action was lawful or violated the Administrative Procedure Act reflected in the judgment.
