Reclaiming Coal Surface Mines In Central Appalachia: A Case Study Of The Benefits And Costs, Richard C. Ausness, Alan Randall, Oren Grunewald, Sue Johnson, Angelos Pagoulatos
Reclaiming Coal Surface Mines In Central Appalachia: A Case Study Of The Benefits And Costs, Richard C. Ausness, Alan Randall, Oren Grunewald, Sue Johnson, Angelos Pagoulatos
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Regulatory alternatives for the surface mining industry have come under intense public and political scrutiny in recent years. Recent studies have found that the impacts of federal surface mine reclamation regulations' will be noticeable, but perhaps not as substantial as some had expected. Nationwide, coal production from surface mines would be reduced by about five percent, with a similar increase in underground coal production. The federal reclamation legislation, depending on the regulations eventually adopted for its implementation, is unlikely to be a major disruptive influence in the coal industry or a substantial impediment to the long-run national goal of increased …

Water Use Permits In A Riparian State: Problems And Proposals, Richard C. Ausness
Water Use Permits In A Riparian State: Problems And Proposals, Richard C. Ausness
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Although adequate supplies of water are generally available in Kentucky, the law governing its use and allocation is much less satisfactory. At present, Kentucky water law is a complex mixture of common law and statutory water rights. The purpose of this article is to evaluate these water rights and suggest a number of improvements. Part I will examine the common law rules as they relate to both surface water and ground water. Part II will focus upon Kentucky's present system of statutory water use regulation and will identify some of its more serious deficiencies. Part III will recommend some short-range …

Environmental Law: A Reevaluation Of Federal Pre-Emption And The Commerce Clause, Mark J. Alonso
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Comment addresses how the concern of state and local governments to regain control over environmental regulation has resulted in a marked increase in conflicts with the commerce and supremacy clauses of the Constitution. Various tests have been used by the courts to determine violations of these Constitutional provisions where environmental objectives are sought through local laws. In the field of environmental litigation, traditional tests are constantly challenged to meet the changing moral climate of the nation. This Comment weighs the desire of local legislatures for more responsive environmental regulation against the federal goal of uniform regulation and unrestrained interstate …

Indian Water Rights In Theory And Practice: Navajo Experience In The Colorado River Basin, Monroe E. Price, Gary D. Weatherford
Indian Water Rights In Theory And Practice: Navajo Experience In The Colorado River Basin, Monroe E. Price, Gary D. Weatherford
Faculty Articles
Although Indian water rights are of critical economic importance, the nature and scope of these rights remain unclear. The Supreme Court has addressed itself to the issue infrequently, and most commentators have limited their discussions to an exegesis of the appellate arguments rather than engage in an analysis of the broader nature and context of these rights. Reservation water rights are of a very special nature: A right to water does not necessarily include a right to the capital investment necessary to realize the economic benefit of an entitlement, and limits on the uses of the water may be at …
Urban Environmental Law: Emergent Citizens' Rights For The Aesthetic, The Spiritual, And The Spacious, Nicholas A. Robinson
Urban Environmental Law: Emergent Citizens' Rights For The Aesthetic, The Spiritual, And The Spacious, Nicholas A. Robinson
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The issues in environmental law have been largely directed toward the natural environment, however, very recently and with growing force, new law has been channeled into the service of our nation's urban centers. Traditionally, urban environmental law included only broad schemes to redress urban ills, such as zoning laws, public housing programs, and urban renewal. In the past few years, there has been an increase in the development of personally held and asserted citizens rights to a quality urban environment. While articles on the urban environment often deal with statutory and administrative action, this article presents a different perspective, that …
State Preparation Of Environmental Impact Statements For Federally Aided Highway Programs, Thomas Mcdonough, Jr.
State Preparation Of Environmental Impact Statements For Federally Aided Highway Programs, Thomas Mcdonough, Jr.
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), passed by Congress in 1969, has been called "the broadest and perhaps most important of the recent statutes [which attempt] . . . to control . . . the destructive engine of material progress." Despite such plaudits, NEPA has been the target of much critical legal commentary and the source of much litigation in the federal courts. Considerable controversy has centered on what is considered the core of NEPA: the required filing of an environmental impact statement (EIS) by agencies undertaking "major Federal actions significantly affecting the quality of the human environment . . …

The Use And Legal Significance Of The Mean High Water Line In Coastal Boundary Mapping, Richard C. Ausness, Frank E. Maloney
The Use And Legal Significance Of The Mean High Water Line In Coastal Boundary Mapping, Richard C. Ausness, Frank E. Maloney
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
The effect of unplanned and ill-conceived land use development on the coastal ecology has been well documented in recent years. Recognizing the need for more effective governmental control in this area, a number of state legislatures have enacted statutes to protect the coastal environment and encourage the orderly development of coastal resources. These efforts have received the support of the federal government as well.
Determination of coastal boundaries is essential to the development of an effective coastal zone management program. In general such boundaries represent the intersection of the shore with a particular tidal elevation. However, the demarcation of coastal …
Environmental Law-Statutory Interpretation-Factors To Be Considered In Making A Threshold Determination That An Environmental Impact Statement Is Necessary Under The Na- Tional Environmental Policy Act Of 1969
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) was passed by Congress in 1969 declaring a policy which will promote efforts to protect the environment, to stimulate the health and welfare of man, and to enrich the understanding of the natural resources important to the nation. Under NEPA, all federal agencies must develop decision making procedures that include an evaluation of factors the agency will consider in deciding whether a proposed agency action will significantly affect the "human environment."' Federal agencies, unable to discern the meaning of "human environment," have had difficulty in deciding what factors to consider in making the threshold …

"Impact Reports" : A Domestic Law Analogy For International Legislation, L.F.E. Goldie
Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce
Proposals submitted to the Seabeds Committee of the United Nations General Assembly and by the Report of the President's Commission on Marine Science, Engineering and Resources contain blueprints for the establishment of international agencies with respect to seabed exploitation, the duration and extent of licenses of seabed areas, the quantum of the interest granted, the conditions of forfeiture and the destination of revenues. They do not, however, offer concrete proposals for combatting the pollution effects of deep sea mining and merely, at best, make some pious reference to the need for taking environmental issues and interests into account. In the …

This is the eighth annual Regional Meeting of the American Society of International Law here at Syracuse. Our topic for this meeting is "The United Nations and the Resources of the Deep-Ocean Floor." The problems which this theme signals are becoming cute as the world's population increasingly presses on our diminishing resources and as our environment is threatened with major and possibly irreversible degradation.

This article discusses the problem of air and noise pollution caused by motor vehicles circa the time of the article's writing (1972), and the public interest in dealing with these problems, in the light of federal government's conflicting interest in creating more roads. Mentioned is the fact that construction of more highways seems to be the federal government's answer to traffic congestion, while another point of view is that more highways encourages a rise in the number of motor vehicles on those roads. The article ends with some suggestions for how to deal with these problems.

The Effect Of Sovereign Immunity On Environmental Protection Suits Against Government Officials, Richard C. Ausness
The Effect Of Sovereign Immunity On Environmental Protection Suits Against Government Officials, Richard C. Ausness
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
A number of excellent articles have been published on the general subject of federal sovereign immunity in recent years, but most of them have been substantially concerned with legislative or judicial reform of this and related doctrines. The growing importance of environmental values as significant social and legal interests compels an examination of the relationship between sovereign immunity and the environmental protection suit. This article will trace the past and recent development of the immunity doctrine and consider its present and potential impact on environmental litigation.

International Environmental Damage Control: Some Proposals For The Second Best Of All Possible Worlds, Stephen J. Vasek Jr.
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Recent meetings of international law experts have produced considerable debate over the type of international regime necessary to effectively control pollution. Divergent views expressed range from the "survival approach" of Professor Falk to the "grocery-list approach" of Christian Herter Jr., Special Assistant to the Secretary of State for Environment. The "grocery-list approach" is an operational approach which involves doing what can be done by the use of available means including discussion to define common interests, international agreements based on those shared interests, unilateral action where appropriate and increased use of the UN for a variety of purposes such as environment …

On Dissent, Violence, And The Intellectual, Page Keeton
Vanderbilt Law Review
If I have properly assessed the meaning of Dean Forrester's comments, he stated that: (1) America is now in the midst of an attempted revolution, an attempt to create a new society by force and violence; (2) war, race relations, poverty, environment, and the other festers in our society, while great problems, are not the real causes of the discontent; (3) the attempted revolution is the product of a generation of university teaching and writing which has created the intellectual atmosphere and the state of mind that sustain the conflict. I respectfully dissent while recognizing at the same time the …

Legislation And The Environment: Individual Rights And Government Accountability, Richard L. Ottinger
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
Recent public concern with the pollution threat has generated a rash of suggested solutions. Within the past year councils, agencies, advisory commissions, and billion-dollar programs have been urged upon us. Reorganizations and reorderings of priorities have been called for. The question remains, however, whether this welter of proposals squarely attacks the real problem-the fact that all of our institutions are rooted in the notions of inexhaustible supply and limitless ability to repair. The answer can be found only by examining specific conflicts between technology and environment and analyzing the way our institutions attempt to resolve them.
