And it may be a foreshadowing of more to come.

Earlier this year, Virginia Attorney General Kenneth T. Cuccinelli, II, filed a suit against the EPA calling into question certain data upon which some global warming regulations were based.

At a press conference yesterday, two Virginia legislators, state senator Ryan T. McDougle (R-Hanover), and delegate Timothy D. Hugo (R-Fairfax) called into question EPA data related to percentage increases in impervious surface areas. The data, which indicates that from 1990 to 2000, impervious surfaces in the Chesapeake Bay watershed increased by 41% while the population increased 8%, has been cited by EPA and state regulators as a reason for strengthening Virginia’s Stormwater Regulations.
