Articles

The public trust doctrine is an ancient doctrine that has recently emerged as a powerful tool to protect the public interest in tidelands and shorelands. Created and developed by the judiciary, the doctrine's principles have found their way into several of Washington's regulatory statutes, such as the Shoreline Management Act and the Aquatic Lands Act. This Article traces the development of the doctrine in Washington, and explains the relation between the state's police power and the public trust doctrine. This Article also sets forth the current contours of the public trust doctrine in Washington, and charts potential future developments of …

The Canadian Administrative Process For Evaluating The Transboundary Environmental Impact Of Energy Exports, Rosemary C. Blinn

Connecticut Journal of International Law

The need for electricity in the United States has grown dramatically in the last decade. Americans constitute only five percent of the world's population,' yet consume twenty-five percent of the world's energy.' That need is expected to grow in the next decade.' Despite their increased use of electricity, Americans have become more selective about its source. Some methods of generating power have faced public opposition over their potential safety or environmental impacts.

New York and several New England states currently resolve the tension between the need for electricity and public concern about the environment by purchasing hydropower from Canada. Hydropower …

Fighting Exclusion From Televised Presidential Debates: Minor-Party Candidates' Standing To Challenge Sponsoring Organizations' Tax-Exempt Status, Gregory P. Magarian

Michigan Law Review

This Note argues that courts should recognize minor-party presidential candidates' standing to challenge the section 50l(c)(3) tax-exempt status of organizations sponsoring televised debates that exclude minor-party candidates. Part I situates the issue within the context of the Supreme Court's standing jurisprudence and concludes that the validity of a third-party tax-status challenge by an aggrieved minor-party presidential candidate remains an open question. Part II analyzes the Second and District of Columbia Circuits' decisions and concludes that the Second Circuit's approach properly interprets the Supreme Court's standing doctrine and correctly resolves the particular arguments which both courts consider. Part III first demonstrates …

Least Cost Electricity For Texas, Karl R. Rábago

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The effects of consuming fossil fuels have disproportionately elevated human importance by the collective impact made on the world environment. Even the most buoyant optimist can be depressed by adding the global climactic changes of the greenhouse effect to a list that already includes air pollution, water pollution, soil contamination, health effects, balance of trade deficits, declining technological competitiveness, and vanishing natural resources. In Texas the primary source of electricity, and a major source of environmental problems, is the combustion of fossil fuels. This article introduces the reader to some of the environmental, economic, and regulatory challenges involved in responding …

Introduction: Mexican Perspectives On Economic, Political And Cultural Implications Of Free Trade, Henry Mcgee

Faculty Articles

Professor McGee introduces two papers submitted to the 1990 UCLA School of Law seminar entitled Law and Development in Latin America. The first paper, written before the onset of negotiations for a free trade treaty between Mexico and the United States, deals with the then new regulations of the Mexican Secretary of the Treasurer (Secretaria de la Hacienda) designed to sweep away a labyrinth of rules and procedures which had traditionally vexed foreign investors who dealt with the Mexican bureaucracy. The second paper concerns the irony which inheres in Mexico's treatment of Central American immigration, a problem relatively undiscussed in …

Environmental Reforms In Post-Communist Central Europe: From High Hopes To Hard Reality, Margaret Bowman, David Hunter

Michigan Journal of International Law

This article surveys the environmental law reforms taking place throughout the region and some of the important issues surrounding these reforms. Two caveats to this approach should be highlighted at the outset. First, information from the region is still somewhat incomplete. Precise translations of laws, in particular, are not always available. This article can provide only a general guide to legislative and regulatory trends in the region and should not form the basis for specific action or decisions. Second, every country in the region is different, with its own complexities. Despite our failure to resist the temptation to generalize about …

Recent Developments In Osha Litigation, Marshall J. Breger

Scholarly Articles

After almost a year serving as the Solicitor of Labor, I can attest to the difficult challenges the Department of Labor will face and must overcome in the years ahead if it is to continue to be a dynamic and positive force in setting our Nation's labor policy. Indeed, I believe that current rulemaking and enforcement litigation on behalf of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration foreshadows significant issues the Department must resolve in the near future. This article focuses on two such OSH Act issues of current prominence: one, litigation challenges to OSHA rulemaking; and two, the use of …
