The Supreme Court is set to consider whether business groups can challenge California's emissions standards, which they argue effectively set national policy without federal approval.
Challengers believe that California's status as a junior-varsity E.P.A. allows it to impose unlawful standards that dictate the automobile market without sufficient federal oversight.
A previous ruling from the D.C. Circuit determined that fuel producers do not have standing to sue since the waiver primarily impacts vehicle manufacturers rather than them directly.
The Supreme Court's decision will focus on whether the business groups have the right to sue based on the injuries they claim to suffer from California's emissions waiver.
