While we include chapters on federal public lands and areas of federal primacy like wetlands regulation and endangered species protection, our focus is …

In the twentieth century, the doctrine became a favorite of the law professoriate and the environmental community for its potential to recognize public rights in private property. Thus, the doctrine both promotes public access to trust resources and justifies public regulation of them. It also equips the public with the right …
