"Several green groups launched a legal campaign last week against the Trump administration over a pair of rules issued by U.S. EPA under the nation's new chemicals law.
Environmentalists filed lawsuits Thursday and Friday in at least three federal appellate courts around the country seeking review of the rules, which EPA issued in June to guide risk evaluations and prioritization of chemical substances.
