At 10 a.m., the Court may issue one or more opinions in pending cases. We will provide coverage of any developments.

Following the announcement of any rulings, the Court will hear argument in Entergy Corp. v. EPA (07-588) and two consolidated cases, on the regulation of cooling water intake structures under the Clean Water Act.

We will post links to transcripts of the arguments as soon as they are available.
