Silent Blight: New York's Brownfields & Environmental Justice, Nicholas Capuano Apr 2003

Silent Blight: New York's Brownfields & Environmental Justice, Nicholas Capuano

Pace Environmental Law Review

A complete prediction of the success of brownfield legislation cannot be made through statutory analysis alone. There are many factors besides the legislature's scope of influence and authority that must work in tandem to ensure broad success in brownfield redevelopment. This comment analyzes the economic, social and political dynamics surrounding brownfields in minority neighborhoods via discussions regarding how legislators and the governor must leverage all tools at their disposal to achieve brownfield initiatives that will simultaneously serve to address environmental justice goals.


Changing Nature: The Myth Of The Inevitability Of Ecosystem Management, Bruce Pardy Apr 2003

Changing Nature: The Myth Of The Inevitability Of Ecosystem Management, Bruce Pardy

Pace Environmental Law Review

In this article, the author argues that ecosystem management is a policy choice masquerading as an inevitability. Ecosystem management is a process that measures, controls and changes ecosystems to produce the most desirable environment in human terms. The article begins with a discussion of two developments from which ecosystem management derives its legitimacy, the theory of nonequilibrium in ecosystems and the extinction of pristine systems: ecosystems exist in a fluid and dynamic state, and there are no ecosystems that are completely unaffected by human impact. Therefore, according to the prevailing view, it is not possible to preserve ecosystems in a …

Missed Opportunities: California Energy Fears, New York Energy Policy And The New York Power Authority's New York City Turbine Projects, John L. Parker, James Malatras Sep 2002

Missed Opportunities: California Energy Fears, New York Energy Policy And The New York Power Authority's New York City Turbine Projects, John L. Parker, James Malatras

Pace Environmental Law Review

In this article, the authors argue that the actions taken by several state agencies have demonstrated the need for improved energy policy. This article illustrates that Article X of the Public Service Law, as well as the current State energy system of production and distribution, is seriously flawed and that deregulation has not been good for the consumer or the environment. This article shows that this system has brought New York to its current situation-the building of numerous plants without a comprehensive or rational energy plan, and a push for distributed generators, increasing pollution of the State's air, water, and …


Earning Deference: Reflections On The Merger Of Environmental And Land-Use Law , Michael Allan Wolf Sep 2002

Earning Deference: Reflections On The Merger Of Environmental And Land-Use Law , Michael Allan Wolf

Pace Environmental Law Review

Professor Wolf suggests that there is a brooding omnipresence over local government efforts to protect the environment; that omnipresence is the idea of regulatory takings. Professor Wolf emphasizes that local governments need to earn deference. Since the decision in Village of Euclid v. Ambler Realty Co., local governments have been acting in a "Euclidean zone of comfort" when implementing traditional land-use regulations. However, he suggests that local governments may be acting outsides of that zone when they enact environmental regulations and that there is a rich history of negative decisions concerning local environmental regulations. Professor Wolf then offers three strategies …

Expanding The Use Of Environmental Trading Programs Into New Areas Of Environmental Regulation, Richard E. Ayres Sep 2000

Expanding The Use Of Environmental Trading Programs Into New Areas Of Environmental Regulation, Richard E. Ayres

Pace Environmental Law Review

This article identifies the fundamental policy issues that must be dealt with in designing market-based pollution control systems. Market- based pollution control systems are now well established in America air and water pollution control programs. So far, however, the benefits of such systems have been limited by the unease of regulators and others about quality assurance, environmental justice, and other design issues. In order to realize the full potential benefits of market-based programs these issues must be addressed as part of the program design.


Environmental Law And Justice In New York City, Where A Park Is Not Just A Park , Christopher Rizzo Sep 2000

Environmental Law And Justice In New York City, Where A Park Is Not Just A Park , Christopher Rizzo

Pace Environmental Law Review

The Surface water treatment rule of the Safe Drinking Water Act has threatened to impose the burden of costly filtration plants on New York City for several years. It is now a reality, with multi-billion dollar filtration projects planned in the Croton System and threatened in the Catskill and Delaware Systems. Compounding this problem is the fierce opposition to siting a filtration plant in the densely populated low-income communities of the Bronx. This Comment explores the history of the filtration mandate and the litigation that has swirled around the decision to site the plant in the Bronx.

An Examination Of Two Of New York State's Brownfields Remediation Initiatives: Title V Of The 1996 Bond Act And The Voluntary Remediation Program, Glen M. Vogel Sep 1999

An Examination Of Two Of New York State's Brownfields Remediation Initiatives: Title V Of The 1996 Bond Act And The Voluntary Remediation Program, Glen M. Vogel

Pace Environmental Law Review

Over the past two decades, the advent of federal and state environmental laws and the accompanying fear of liability for clean-up has led to a reluctance on the part of developers to purchase former industrial or commercial sites. These abandoned sites in which redevelopment is complicated by fear of contamination are known as brownfields. This article explores the utility of Title V of the New York State Clean Water/Clean Air Bond Act of 1996 and the State Voluntary Clean-up Program in creating incentive for developers to remediate these sites in New York State. This incentive gives developers a reason to …


The Epa's Proposed Phase-Iii Expansion Of The Toxic Release Inventory (Tri) Reporting Requirements: Everything And The Kitchen Sink, Barbara Ann Clay Sep 1997

The Epa's Proposed Phase-Iii Expansion Of The Toxic Release Inventory (Tri) Reporting Requirements: Everything And The Kitchen Sink, Barbara Ann Clay

Pace Environmental Law Review

This Comment examines the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) proposed expansion of the Toxic Release Inventory (TRl) reporting requirements under section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) of 1986. The TRI program allows the EPA to provide public information pertaining to the release of chemicals by certain industrial facilities into the environment. In October of 1996, the EPA published its intention to expand reporting requirements, including the collection of material accounting (MA) data elements. MA data tracks the lifecycle of chemicals from raw materials to end product; therefore, industry officials oppose MA reporting as unjustifiably extensive. Environmental …
