Clean Water Act Citizens Suits After Gwaltney: Applying Mootness Principles In Private Enforcement Actions, Reed D. Benson

Faculty Scholarship

The Supreme Court recently held that a citizen plaintiff must make a good-faith allegation of an ongoing violation in order to bring an enforcement action under the Clean Water Act. The decision in Gwaltney of Smithfield, Ltd. v. Chesapeake Bay Foundation, Inc., will prevent citizens from bringing suit for the assessment of civil penalties solely for past violations of the Clean Water Act.

The Public Trust Doctrine: Accommodating The Public Need Within Constitutional Bounds—Orion Corp. V. State, 109 Wash. 2d 621, 747 P.2d 1062 (1987), Cert. Denied, 108 S. Ct. 1996 (1988), Steven W. Turnbull

Washington Law Review

Following decades of neglecting its public trust duties, Washington now accepts the public trust doctrine as a permanent fixture in its law. In Orion Corp. v. State, the Washington Supreme Court reaffirmed the state's sovereign interest as the public's trustee in its tidelands, marshes, and shorelands.

The Offshore Constitutional Settlement Western Australia 1988, Fisheries Department Of Western Australia

Fisheries management papers

In June 1987 under the Offshore Constitution Settlement (OCS), the Australian and West Australian State Governments completed the first stage of rationalising jurisdiction over a number of fisheries operating off the West Australian coast.
