The Colonia And The Landfill: Colonias Development Council V. Rhino Environmental Services, Inc., Kristina Fisher

Student Thesis Honors (1996-2008)

On July 18, 2005, the New Mexico Supreme Court handed down a groundbreaking decision in Colonias Development Council v. Rhino Environmental Services, Inc., requiring the New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) to take environmental justice criteria into consideration during solid waste facility permitting decisions. When the New Mexico Supreme Court overruled the agency and required it to consider the social impact and regional proliferation of waste sites in its Solid Waste Act permitting decisions, it signaled a substantial shift in the interpretation of New Mexico environmental law.

Paternalism Or Protection?: Federal Review Of Tribal Economic Decisions In Indian Gaming, Kevin Washburn, Barry W. Brandon, Philip N. Hogen, Vanya S. Hogen Mar 2008

Paternalism Or Protection?: Federal Review Of Tribal Economic Decisions In Indian Gaming, Kevin Washburn, Barry W. Brandon, Philip N. Hogen, Vanya S. Hogen

Faculty Scholarship

In a recent Senate hearing, Senator John McCain and Professor Washburn clashed about the federal role in tribal economic decisions involving Indian gaming. Professor Washburn, who was struck by decades of incompetent federal stewardship of tribal trust funds demonstrated so painfully in the Cobell litigation, questioned the wisdom of the existing gaming regulatory structure in which federal officials at the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) exercise oversight of tribal economic decisions involving tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Senator McCain sharply disagreed. Following his investigation of lobbyist Jack Abramoff, McCain was even more certain that tribes needed federal protection …
