Judicial Review Timeline Clarity Act

HR 3905, the Judicial Review Timeline Clarity Act, amends the Clean Water Act to clarify timelines for challenging water pollution permits. It requires lawsuits seeking judicial review of individual or general permits (for dredged/fill material discharges) to be filed within 60 days of permit issuance, and mandates that such lawsuits must be based on specific comments made during the public comment period. The bill limits courts from vacating permits unless there is an imminent environmental danger with no other remedy, and sets a 180-day deadline for agencies to act after a court remands a case. This directly affects environmental groups, businesses, and citizens challenging permit decisions under the Clean Water Act.
