RE:		State court order concerning 2015 RECLAIM amendments

We asked attorneys at the South Coast Air Quality Management District for their thoughts on the recent state court order remanding the 2015 RECLAIM amendments based on a procedural issue. In response, Bill Wong explained that the District may consider appealing the order but that, in the meantime, the RECLAIM program rules remain in effect and the District plans to implement the rules as adopted.
