The Environmental Protection Agency asked a federal appeals court Friday to hold off from enforcing its decision to allow Obama-era methane rules for fracking to move forward as it weighs its options for appeal.

The agency asked the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals for “relief from immediate compliance” with its Monday ruling, which said Trump’s EPA lacked the legal authority to delay the methane rules on oil and natural gas drillers for two years while it mulled repealing the rule.
