The article discusses concerns raised by a recent Times report suggesting the Trump administration might halt New York City's congestion pricing program. It emphasizes that any attempt to do so could violate legal regulations. The piece points out that while the administration may explore legal avenues, they are likely hampered by the absence of federal approvals needed for such an action. It highlights the complexity of the legal landscape governing environmental assessments and the limitations faced by the Trump administration in this regard.
The mechanism for withdrawing the Finding of No Significant Impact would be to re-evaluate it, but the law constrains such a unilateral action by Trump.
According to regulations, Trump would need changes or new information to reevaluate the congestion pricing, but currently, no federal approvals remain to act on.
