The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned a lower court decision from earlier this month that prevented the 303-mile Mountain Valley Pipeline from being built.

In an unsigned order, the Supreme Court vacated the July 10 stay orders from the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, in which the lower court sided with plaintiffs — environmental groups Wilderness Society and Appalachian Voices, which had sued to stop the pipeline construction. The Biden administration, partisan lawmakers, and the fossil fuel industry all disagreed with the 4th Circuit ruling.

“Whatever benefit respondents or the court of appeals might believe would be gained by having the agencies again reconsider the challenged actions, Congress has determined that further reconsideration is unwarranted and has prioritized MVP’s ‘timely’ completion over interests addressed by any other federal statutes,” the Department of Justice wrote in an amicus brief to the Supreme Court last week.
