Another possibly relevant subsection is § 706(2)(C) (relating to agency action "in excess of statutory jurisdiction, authority, or limitations, or short of statutory right"), which may be implicated when courts review agencies' interpretation of their statutory mandates and apply the Chevron doctrine.

    • Chevron's Mistake
    • note
    • Although consideration of the Chevron doctrine would also yield policy decisions made in light of scientific uncertainty, the statutory-interpretation basis for applying Chevron sets that doctrine beyond the scope of this Article. Cf. Lisa Schultz Bressman, Chevron's Mistake, 58 Duke L.J. 549, 585 (2009) ("[T]he effect of each is much the same.").

    • note
    • Nevertheless, Chevron has a great deal to say about the relationship between courts and agencies generally, and to that extent, I draw on Chevron for support. See, e.g., 467 U.S. at 865 ("Judges are not experts in the field, and are not part of either political branch of the Government.... While agencies are not directly accountable to the people, the Chief Executive is, and it is entirely appropriate for this political branch of the Government to make such policy choices....").

    • Procedures as Politics
    • note
    • But in light of the super-deference principle's grounding in the Supreme Court's view that agencies are the appropriate policymaking branch-and the Baltimore Gas facts themselves, in which the agency was forthcoming about scientific uncertainty and policy-it seems that other factors may better explain remands even where agencies have been explicit. Indeed, Professor Bressman has explained the remand in State Farm as influenced by the Court's perception that the agency needed to make explicit the political factors influencing its decision. Bressman, Procedures as Politics, 107 Colum. L. Rev. at 1783 ("One message to the agency was to better cloak its politically based decisions in technical dress. Another was to reveal the political as well as the technical basis for its decisions.").

    • Courts have uniformly concluded that Daubert does not apply to judicial review of agency action, and have invoked various justifications. See, e.g., Lobsters, Inc. v. Evans, 346 F. Supp. 2d 340, 344 (D. Mass. 2004) ("Daubert and its progeny interpret the Federal Rules of Evidence, however, and the federal rules of evidence [sic] do not apply to NOAA hearings.").

    • For example, the Hope Natural Gas Court explained its deferential approach: It is not the theory but the impact of the rate order which counts. If the total effect of the rate order cannot be said to be unjust and unreasonable, judicial inquiry under the Act is at an end. The fact that the method employed to reach that result may contain infirmities is not then important. Moreover, the Commission's order does not become suspect by reason of the fact that it is challenged. It is the product of expert judgment which carries a presumption of validity. 320 U.S. at 602.

    • The judicial ideology literature further suggests that "the ideological preferences of judges and Justices have considerable explanatory power in the context of judicial review of agency actions." Richard J. Pierce, Jr., What Do the Studies of Judicial Review of Agency Actions Mean?, 9 (George Washington Univ. L. Sch. Pub. Law & Legal Theory, Working Paper No. 505, 2010), available at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1604701. If this is so, perhaps one answer is that ideology is a complication that impacts judicial review regardless of where one lies on the hard-look-superdeference spectrum.
