A judge has overturned a decision that could have delayed construction of a huge Amazon dam opposed by environmentalists, Indians and the director of "Avatar."
The judge in the capital of Brasilia reversed a decision to suspend contract bidding scheduled for next week. He also overturned the suspension of the environmental license for the 11,000-megawatt Belo Monte dam.
Brazil's solicitor general issued a statement reporting the decision. It is not immediately clear if the latest decision could be appealed.
