A Priest Lake, Idaho, couple has prevailed in a property rights case involving the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
The U.S. Supreme Court today ruled that Mike and Chantell Sackett can go to court to challenge an EPA order that blocked construction of their new home and threatened fines of more than $30,000 a day.
The Sacketts’ property has sat undisturbed since the EPA ordered a halt in work in 2007. The agency said part of the property was a wetland that could not be disturbed without a permit.
