183016P.pdf   12/06/2019  George Wise  v.  Department of Transportation
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-3016
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Erickson, 
   Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Environmental law. The court has jurisdiction over this 
   interlocutory appeal as the district court's order had the practical 
   effect of a denying a preliminary injunction; the district court did not 
   err in concluding that plaintiff was not entitled to a preliminary 
   injunction as he was unlikely to succeed on the merits; plaintiff failed 
   to show that the agency's determination that the I-630 highway project 
   took place entirely within the existing operational right-of-way and thus 
   qualified for a categorical exclusion from NEPA's requirements under 23 
   C.F.R. 771.117(c)(22) was arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion or 
   otherwise not in accordance with law.
