The Protection Of Groundwater And Public Drinking Supplies: Recent Trends In Litigation And Legislation, Pamela King

Vanderbilt Law Review

Although groundwater is one of our most vital natural resources, it is perhaps the least protected. Over half of the total United States population-nearly 117 million people-depends on groundwater reservoirs, or aquifers, as its source of drinking water. Industry looks to groundwater for twenty-six percent of its water needs, and two-thirds of all groundwater is used in agriculture. In addition, groundwater reenters oceans, lakes, and rivers to supply nearly one-third of the flow of surface water in the United States.

Presently, underground water sources are contaminated in all fifty states. This pollution is the by-product of a vast array of …

Asbestos In Schools: The Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act And School Asbestos Litigation, James C. Stanley

Vanderbilt Law Review

Over a decade has passed since the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) first identified asbestos as a health threat to the nation's school children in 1978.

The results have been mixed at best. School officials, legislators, and legal commentators have criticized much of the legislation as ineffective; the litigation has added cases to a legal docket already overburdened by personal injury suits brought by individuals against asbestos manufacturers and liability insurance …
