Dear Mr. Langer:
The State and state agency petitioners submit this letter under FRAP 28(j) to notify the Court of a recent decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Texas v. EPA, No. 16-60118, --F.3d--, 2016 WL 3878180 (5th Cir. July 15, 2016).

The Fifth Circuit's conclusion is consistent with this Court's similar conclusion in Delaware Dep't of Nat. Res. v. EPA, 785 F.3d 1, 18 (D.C. Cir. 2015) ("[G]rid reliability is not a subject of the Clean Air Act and is not the province of EPA."), and is relevant here in two ways.
First, it supports Petitioners' argument that the Rule requires clear congressional authorization because, inter alia, EPA has no expertise in managing electric generation. Pet. Core Br. 32-36 (discussing King v. Burwell, 135 S. Ct. 2480, 2489 (2015)). As Petitioners have explained, that expertise lies with state utilities regulators and FERC. Id. at 38; see also Ark. Elec. Coop. Corp. v. Ark. Pub. Serv. Comm'n, 461 U.S. 375, 377 (1983) ("the regulation of utilities is one of the most important of the functions traditionally associated with the police power of the States"); Texas, 2016 WL 3878180 at *39 ("FERC . . . is the federal expert in that area.").
Second, it supports Petitioners' argument that EPA has failed to show that the Rule will not detrimentally affect grid reliability. Pet. Record Br. 20, 40. As the Fifth Circuit explained, regardless of whether EPA consulted with outside experts, EPA Br. 55, EPA's lack of expertise "diminishe[s]" any deference owed to agency conclusions supporting the Rule. Texas, 2016 WL 3878180 at *39.
