PORT ANGELES — Fluoridation opponents have asked the state Supreme Court to review a lower court ruling that said public water fluoridation is “categorically exempt” from the state’s Environmental Policy Act.
If the justices decide it isn’t, then the issue of public water fluoridation can be considered, said Eloise Kailin of Blyn, one of the appellants in the case.
If the state Supreme Court declines to hear the case, then an appeal of the ruling will be filed with the state Court of Appeals, Kailin said.
“The state Supreme Court is the best place to land that decision,” Kailin said.
“There’s not been many decisions on that aspect of the state Environmental Policy Act.”
