The Waterkeeper Alliance claim in a federal complaint Wednesday that the Clean Water Rule of June 2015 denied protection to critical streams, rivers, lakes and wetlands, and a Delay Rule of February 2018 delayed protections for other bodies of water. It’s the 45th such lawsuit against EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt this calendar-year.
