EPA Citizen Suit Proposal Could Reshape Who Can Sue and When, EHSLeaders
April 20, 2026EHSLeaders cited a Morgan Lewis LawFlash written by partners Duke McCall and Randall Mark Levine and associate Drew Cleary Jordan in an article examining the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) proposed update to its citizen suit notice procedures and its potential implications for environmental enforcement.
Quoting from the LawFlash, the article highlights that the proposal is intended “to modernize the notice process to enhance efficiency, transparency and EPA’s ability to address alleged violations within statutory timelines,” while noting that “this seemingly minor procedural change could have larger-scale impacts on how citizen suits are processed and litigated and how industry tracks agency actions and citizen suit activity.”
