Joint Interim Hearing On Environmental Issues On November 1990 Ballot Propositions 128 And 135, Assembly Committee On Environmental Safety And Toxic Materials, Assembly Committee On Agriculture, Assembly Committee On Natural Resources
California Assembly
This is a joint hearing of three Assembly Committees: Environmental Safety, Agriculture, and Natural Resources. The subject of this joint hearing is the environmental propositions which are placed on the November ballot by citizen initiative, Propositions 128 and 135. The intent of this hearing is to elicit public testimony from the supporters and opponents of these two propositions so that the voters, who will be deciding in November whether they should become law, will have better information on which to make their decision.
Proposition 128, which is sometimes called "Big Green" and sometimes called other things, will enact the Environmental …
Effectiveness Of The Epa's Regulatory Enforcement: The Case Of Industrial Effluent Standards, W. Kip Viscusi, Wesley A. Magat
Effectiveness Of The Epa's Regulatory Enforcement: The Case Of Industrial Effluent Standards, W. Kip Viscusi, Wesley A. Magat
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
The EPA water pollution regulations-the focus of this study- represent an interesting departure from past patterns of regulatory failure. First, the nature of the regulations-discharge limits-relates directly to the policy objective of controlling pollution, and there is no potential for offsetting behavioral responses. If the pollution standards are binding and enforced, they should improve water quality. Second, the enforcement effort is so extensive that enforcement should affect firms' compliance. In the pulp and paper industry, which we will analyze, the EPA averages roughly one inspection annually per major pollution source. In addition, firms are required to file monthly discharge monitoring …

Moving the West's Water to New Uses: Winners and Losers (Summer Conference, June 6-8)
Conference organizers and/or faculty included University of Colorado Law School professors Lawrence J. MacDonnell and Mark Squillace.
Moving the West's Water to New Uses: Winners and Losers will be the theme for this year's water conference, June 6-8 at the Law School in Boulder. The conference will consider the changing demands for water in the West and the need to reallocate a portion of the existing uses of water to new uses.
The first day will provide the background by looking at the most likely sources of water to meet these demands, including agriculture, federal water projects, interstate transfers, and …

This section profiles the types of disputes which arose at the Woburn Wells G and H Superfund site in Woburn, Mass. The Woburn Wells G and H case serves as a baseline because it demonstrates how obstacles cause delays and impasses. This section contains an overview of what has transpired since the discovery of contaminants in two of the town municipal wells, Well G and H.

This article is designed to assist students and lawyers in their work in the field of Environmental Law; specifically, in the area of preventing and mitigating the effects of pollution. The article begins with the origins of modern environmental law. It briefly summarizes the reasons we have environmental problems and describes the inadequacies of the common law responses. This is key to understanding modern environmental statutes, which are designed to remedy the shortcomings of the common law. The main part of the article sets out the various approaches to remedying those shortcomings and gives examples of environmental statutes which take …

Nepa At Twenty: Mimicry And Recruitment In Environmental Law, William H. Rodgers, Jr.
Articles
We are gathered here to consider not so much a twenty year-old law but a twenty year-old that has been extraordinarily far-reaching and influential. In its own special way, the National Environmental Polic Act and the environmental assessment that it represents have become the legal equivalent of cultural fads such as Hula Hoops, Rubik's Cubes, and Air Jordans.
A good portion of this conference, I suspect, will be devoted to documenting the many measures of NEPA's significance—the legal business it has generated, the institutional moves it has inspired, the precious places it is credited with saving.
My opening remarks will …

The Deforestation Of The Brazilian Amazon: Law, Politics, And International Cooperation, Henry Mcgee, Kurt Zimmerman
Faculty Articles
This article discusses the Brazilian Amazon rain forest and its remarkable biological diversity. Many scientists believe the world's largest jungle serves as a regional and perhaps even "global thermostat." It is therefore essential that vigorous efforts be directed toward its preservation. This article will examine Brazilian attitudes toward its preservation, and possible solutions to the forest destruction with reference to domestic and international law.

Green Property, J. Peter Byrne

This essay begins an effort to imagine legal principles that further ecological values and to criticize extant principles that embody the antithetical values of exploitation and consumption. I will focus on the transformation of property law inherent in adopting an environmentally sustainable land use program.
Our Rights And Obligations To Future Generations For The Environment, Edith Brown Weiss
Our Rights And Obligations To Future Generations For The Environment, Edith Brown Weiss
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
We read every day about the desecration of our environment and the mismanagement of our natural resources. We have always had the capacity to wreck the environment on a small or even regional scale. Centuries of irrigation without adequate drainage in ancient times converted large areas of the fertile Tigris-Euphrates valley into barren desert. What is new is that we now have the power to change our global environment irreversibly, with profoundly damaging effects on the robustness and integrity of the planet and the heritage that we pass to future generations.

Sources Of Inconsistency In Societal Responses To Health Risks, W. Kip Viscusi
Sources Of Inconsistency In Societal Responses To Health Risks, W. Kip Viscusi
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Society has until recently devoted insufficient attention to the long-run environmental problems that we face, including acid rain and the greenhouse effect. Our inaction with respect to these risks can hardly be characterized as a rational response or an overreaction to risk. There are three possible explanations of such diverse phenomena. First, one could simply dismiss this behavior as being the result of inconsistent and irrational behavior. Second, one could devise ad hoc explanations of why individuals underreact in some instances and overreact in others. A third possibility is to reconcile this seemingly inconsistent behavior with a consistent theoretical framework. …

Faculty Scholarship
This article critiques the feminist view Ute Gerhard offers in “Debating Women's Equality: Toward a Feminist Theory of Law from a European Perspective”. Throughout Debating Women's Equality, Gerhard appears to have three ambitious objectives in mind: (1) to decry the paucity of research into women's legal history while beginning to do the needed work, focusing primarily on Germany but also broadly exploring European trends, (2) to demonstrate that German/European women's legal history ultimately vindicates reliance on “equal rights” as a political strategy for women, and (3) to develop an understanding of legal equality that can serve as a meaningful tool …
