His decision based on the violation of a law?
“the Court agrees that [the Corps] did not adequately consider the impacts of an oil spill on fishing rights, hunting rights, or environmental justice, or the degree to which the pipeline’s effects are likely to be highly controversial"
So what is the law that was violated? "Environmental justice"? LMAO
This clown is as lame as the other Obama appointee in Hawaii who decided against Trumps travel ban for fear it will offend the feelings of Muslims.
Projects of this nature cannot proceed without an adequate study done of their environmental impact. Hell, smaller scale projects that don't involve transportation of a material that would pollute the land and water if it were to spill out require such studies. That would likely be the law to which he was referring, that there needs to be a thorough environmental impact study done.
