On February 22, 2010, the United States Supreme Court issued its order denying the Petitions for Certiorari of CropLife and the American Farm Bureau who were seeking Supreme Court review of the National Cotton Council of America v. EPA case. In that case, the Sixth Circuit ruled that application of pesticides near or on water was a violation of the Clean Water Act.
