1Opinion of the Court
GINSBURG, Chief Judge. .
The Environmental Protection Agency placed a site owned in part by Carus Chemical Company on the National Priorities List (NPL) of hazardous waste sites, pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), 94 Stat. 2767, 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq., and its implementing regulations. Carus argues the EPA’s action was arbitrary and capricious because the agency misinterpreted, and hence misapplied, its Hazard Ranking System, and because it disregarded more recent data that contradicted those upon which the agency relied.
