The district court’s October 21, 2021 order, insofar as it vacates the current certification rule, 40 C.F.R.

Should the petition for a writ of certiorari be denied, this order shall terminate automatically. In the event the petition for a writ of certiorari is granted, the order shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court. Justice Kagan, with whom The Chief Justice, Justice Breyer, and Justice Sotomayor join, dissents. (Detached Opinion)
