The Lost World Of Administrative Law, Daniel A. Farber, Anne Joseph O'Connell
The Lost World Of Administrative Law, Daniel A. Farber, Anne Joseph O'Connell
Daniel A Farber
The reality of the modern administrative state diverges considerably from the series of assumptions underlying the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) and classic judicial decisions that followed the APA reviewing agency actions. Those assumptions call for statutory directives to be implemented by one agency led by Senate-confirmed presidential appointees with decision-making authority. The implementation (in the form of a discrete action) is presumed to be through statutorily mandated procedures and criteria, with judicial review to determine whether the reasons given by the agency at the time of its action match the delegated directions. This is the lost world of administrative law, …

Catastrophic Risk, Climate Change, And Disaster Law, Daniel A. Farber
Catastrophic Risk, Climate Change, And Disaster Law, Daniel A. Farber
Daniel A Farber
Disaster law promises to become an increasingly important subject over the course of this century. Climate change will increase the frequency of extreme weather events, while more people and property will be at risk due to population growth, coastal development and economic growth. Depending on the extent of climate change, the risks vary from serious to catastrophic. In dealing with these increased levels of risk, the entire disaster cycle must be considered, from pre-disaster risk mitigation to emergency response, followed by insurance and compensation, and rebuilding (and then by another potential disaster). This article provides a framework for considering these …
Navigating The Intersection Of Environmental Law And Disaster Law, Daniel Farber
Navigating The Intersection Of Environmental Law And Disaster Law, Daniel Farber
Daniel A Farber
In an environmental disaster, a disaster causes environmental harm, or an environmental change causes an acute risk to humans, or a combination of both takes place. Examples include the BP oil spill, the London killer fog of 1952, the 2003 European heat wave, and the 2011 Japanese tsunami. Climate change will intensify the connection between disaster issues and the environment. Given the interwoven nature of disasters and the environment, we should consider what environmental law and disaster law can learn from each other. Environmental law has the most to teach disaster law about risk management and prevention. Disaster law, in …

Climate Change: A U.S. Perspective, Daniel Farber
Climate Change: A U.S. Perspective, Daniel Farber
Daniel A Farber
Although the United States has not yet passed national legislation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, there have been other important legal developments. The federal courts have directed the government to take action regarding climate change under existing laws, and state governments have made aggressive efforts to limit emissions. The federal government has begun to plan for adapting to climate change, and it has returned to the international bargaining table in order to play a constructive role in climate negotiations. Although the lack of national legislation is unfortunate, the American system of separation of powers allows other legal action to be …

Pollution Markets And Social Equity: Analyzing The Fairness Of Cap And Trade, Daniel A. Farber
Pollution Markets And Social Equity: Analyzing The Fairness Of Cap And Trade, Daniel A. Farber
Daniel A Farber
This Article considers three fairness issues relating to a cap-and-trade system: fairness to industry, fairness to communities disproportionately impacted by pollution, and fairness to low-income energy consumers. First, assuming any compensation of industry is warranted, free allowances would overcompensate firms for the cost of achieving emission reductions; industry should not receive effective ownership of the atmosphere at the public's expense. Second, environmental justice advocates argue that cap-and-trade systems generate pollution hot spots and encourage dirtier plants to continue operating to the detriment of certain disadvantaged communities. However, cap and trade has no intrinsic tendency to produce increased emissions in disadvantaged …

Differences Between Canadian And U.S. Federal Systems--Resulting Effects On The Ability To Deal With Cross-Border And International Issues, Daniel Farber
Daniel A Farber
Ten years ago, I would have said the answer to the question of how federalism impacts the implementation of border agreements was "not at all," that federalism presents no barrier to implementation of any conceivable agreement that might be reached with another country. Now my answer would be a little bit different than ten years ago. There are some (at this point, relatively confined) areas where federalism could be a problem, although I think, as a practical matter, not a severe one. We are in a state of transition in the U.S. in our thinking about federalism; and it is …
Agencies, Courts, And The Limits Of Balancing, Daniel A. Farber
Agencies, Courts, And The Limits Of Balancing, Daniel A. Farber
Daniel A Farber
Courts have struggled in several very different contexts to determine when a decision maker can consider costs that are not explicitly addressed in the governing statute. This issue arises when agencies decide whether to conduct a rulemaking or what rule to issue after a rulemaking. It also arises when courts decide whether to enjoin a violation of a statute or whether to vacate an administrative rule rather than simply remanding. Judicial opinions point in different directions and often ignore each other.
This Article contends that the same principles should govern judicial and agency discretion to consider costs across all these …
