MEMORANDUM**

2

Lawrence Fafarman appeals pro se the district court's dismissal of his action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Fafarman alleged that the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") unlawfully failed to take action against California for imposing the Vehicle Smog Impact Fee to generate general revenue. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

3

After a de novo review, see Wilson v. A.H. Belo Corp., 87 F.3d 393, 396 (9th Cir. 1996), we agree with the district court that it lacks subject matter jurisdiction to hear Fafarman's claims.

4

AFFIRMED.

*

The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4
