The Discharge Permit Program Under The Federal Water Pollution Control Act Of 1972 - Improvement Of Water Quality Through The Regulation Of Discharges From Industrial Facilities, Joyce P. Davis, Robert J. Glasser

Fordham Urban Law Journal

There has been a significant growth of legislation designed to improve the quality of life in American by regulating the way industrial facilities interact with their environments. The new laws created by this legislation has given the federal government significant responsibilities in many areas formerly regulated by the individual states. This change in regulation is apt to impose stress on the modern industrialized society of America as a result of the impossibility to predict the overall effects of particular actions on the total system. Examining the nature of the actions and the probable direct interactions with the system, one may …

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 …

Environmental Law And Construction Project Management, Michael S. Baram Jan 1974

Environmental Law And Construction Project Management, Michael S. Baram

Faculty Scholarship

Construction project management generally proceeds through sequential stages of project conception, planning, site acquisition, design and construction. Traditionally, citizens and public officials have relied on various elements of American common law to prevent, abate or get compensation for injuries resulting from the final construction stage of project management. Common law concepts of nuisance, negligence and trespass have been applied by the courts to situations where essentially private rights have been infringed by debris, runoff, noise, vibrations, structural damage and other byproducts of the construction process. The common law has therefore indirectly served as an environmental control on construction activities in …

Organized Labor, The Environment, And The Taft-Hartley Act, James C. Oldham Apr 1973

Organized Labor, The Environment, And The Taft-Hartley Act, James C. Oldham

Michigan Law Review

The legal issues inherent in treating out-plant pollution under the Taft-Hartley Act cannot be fully evaluated without a realistic appreciation of practical considerations and industrial experience. For this reason, considerable empirical information has been collected from a variety of sources. The examination and evaluation of this data will precede the legal analysis. The data, it is hoped, will resolve two questions: What is the effect of out-plant pollution on the workers, and what has been the response of labor unions to date?

Does The Environment Need A Court?, George P. Smith Ii Jan 1973

Does The Environment Need A Court?, George P. Smith Ii

Scholarly Articles

In one of his last opinions, Mr. Justice Harlan commented that interstate pollution cases were so complex that they might well be beyond the Supreme Court's power to adjudicate. Such intimations, coming at a time when many claim the American court system is taxed to its capacity and when environmental litigation is allegedly skyrocketing, prompt the question of whether we need a new environmental court to handle cases in this specialized field.
