Missouri Activists sue EPA

Missouri activists are suing the Environmental Protection Agency - EPA.

The Missouri Coalition for the Environment is suing the agency for approving what advocates describe as lax regulations for water quality in Missouri lakes. Advocates say the standards will allow unhealthy nitrogen and phosphorous buildup, which can cause algae blooms.

The Coalition is asking a federal judge to make the EPA disapprove of Missouri's current lake water standards.
