Whistleblower Sues EPA for Padding Advisory Panels with Scientists Reliant on Federal Funding

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is facing a lawsuit from a former advisory member who is accusing the Biden administration of violating federal law by purging industry representatives from two key advisory panels and unlawfully filling the spots with scientists who are financially tied to the administration through multi-million dollar research grants from the EPA.

Stanley Young, who served on the Science Advisory Board (SAB) during the Trump administration, has filed a suit months after EPA Administrator Michael Regan removed more than 40 members from the SAB and seven members from the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) in March. At the time, Regan claimed the move would free the committees from industry influence and restore science-based advisers.

The suit, filed by the Jones Day law firm on Young’s behalf in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, argues that the committees are now “unfairly balanced — both in terms of points of view and the functions the committees are required to perform — because they lack a single member affiliated with regulated industries.”

Six of the seven members appointed to the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) under the Biden administration are university professors, while the seventh is a state official as required by the Clean Air Act, the suit says.
