The U.S. Supreme Court’s May 25 ruling in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency has been criticized in some quarters as a rollback of the Clean Water Act. But in New Jersey, its impact is expected to be minimal.

Disputes about wetlands generate voluminous litigation in New Jersey, and Sackett won’t change that because the state’s environmental regulations that go farther than federal law are still in effect, some environmental lawyers said.
