The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit reversed the Colorado injunction of the Trump administration s Navigable Waters Protection Rule, siding with a coalition of trade groups including the, American Farm Bureau Federation, National Cattlemen s Beef Association and National Pork Producers Council. The Court ruled that Colorado failed to show irreparable injury on the record before the Court. Due to this ruling, NWPR is now effective law in Colorado and all 50 states are now must abide by the water definitions laid out with the Trump rewrite of the Waters of the U.S. rule. NWPR was issued in mid-2020 and effective in all places except Colorado, due to an administrative stay issued by Judge William Martinez on June 19, 2020. The appeals court overturned that stay in action March 2.
