Bill overview
This bill, the Judicial Review Timeline Clarity Act, aims to clarify the deadlines for challenging permits issued under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act’s Section 404. Specifically, it sets a 60-day window from the permit’s issuance date to file a lawsuit for judicial review. If a court finds a violation in the permit’s issuance, it can remand the case back to the relevant agency for correction, but cannot completely revoke the permit unless there’s an immediate and serious threat to public health or the environment. The bill also establishes a timeline of 180 days for agencies to respond to court orders.
