The following excerpt is from Sierra Club v. Penfold, 857 F.2d 1307 (9th Cir. 1988):
In determining whether a claim is ripe for review, we must "evaluate both the fitness of the issues for judicial decision and the hardship to the parties of withholding court consideration." Abbott Laboratories v. Gardner, 387 U.S. 136, 149, 87 S.Ct. 1507, 1515, 18 L.Ed.2d 681 (1967). We will withhold review until "an administrative decision has been formalized and its effects felt in a concrete way by the challenging parties." Id. at 148-49, 87 S.Ct. at 1515.
