(United States Ninth Circuit) - In an action brought by plaintiffs challenging the Bureau of Land Management's approval of a proposed molybdenum mining operation near Eureka,Nevada, the district court judgment is: 1) affirmed where BLM's choice of baseline levels of certain air pollutants was unreasonable and that the BLM's analysis of cumulative impacts was deficient; 2) reversed where plaintiffs challenge the adequacy of the BLM's consideration of various mitigation measures; and 3) vacated as to denial of plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and grant of a joint motion for entry of judgment in favor of defendant.
