Feds 200, Indians ): The Burden Of Proof In The Federal / Indian Fiduciary Relationship, Eugenia A. Phipps

Vanderbilt Law Review

"Great nations, like great men, should keep their word."' Justice Black, in his dissent in Federal Power Commission v. Tuscarora Indian Nation, encapsulated the failures of two centuries of the United States' relationship with its native Indians. Since establishing the first tentative treaties of the Revolutionary era, the United States has made many broad promises to the Indians. These promises, detailed first in treaties and later in statutes, drew the government and the Indians into a fiduciary relationship. Although this relationship would have consequences for federal/Indian interactions, raising the level of care with which the government would treat its native …

The Maine Shore And The Army Corps: A Tale Of Two Harbors, Wells And Saco, Maine, Joseph Kelley, Walter Anderson Jan 2000

The Maine Shore And The Army Corps: A Tale Of Two Harbors, Wells And Saco, Maine, Joseph Kelley, Walter Anderson

Maine Policy Review

By discussing the problems of beach erosion and sand movement at Wells and Saco, Maine, Joseph Kelley and Walter Anderson demonstrate how single-minded, engineering approaches to complex, interdisciplinary coastal issues can create bigger problems than previously existed. As Kelley and Anderson explain, at both Wells and Camp Ellis, the Army Corps of Engineers was brought in to construct a harbor at no local cost to the community. This was accomplished by constructing jetties, and the result has been a persistent and serious problem of beach erosion. Over the years, the Army Corps has offered further technical solutions that have served …


The Opportunities And Threats Of Coastal Development: An Mpr Roundtable Discussion, Paul Anderson Jan 2000

The Opportunities And Threats Of Coastal Development: An Mpr Roundtable Discussion, Paul Anderson

Maine Policy Review

In May 2000, nine discussants—each with a unique perspective on coastal development—convened to explore changes occurring on the Maine coast, whether those changes are consistent with what Maine people want, and what looming issues invite further debate and creative problem solving. Their discussion spanned a range of sensitive issues including aquaculture development, the displacement of traditional economies, the effects of development on coastal wildlife populations, and the reality of diminishing public access to the coast. All agreed that with vision and careful planning we have an opportunity to shape the future of the Maine coast, but the jury is out …

The Public-Use Requirement In Washington After State Ex Rel. Washington State Convention & Trade Center V. Evans, Tim Benedict Jan 2000

The Public-Use Requirement In Washington After State Ex Rel. Washington State Convention & Trade Center V. Evans, Tim Benedict

Washington Law Review

In State ex rel. Washington State Convention & Trade Center v. Evans, the Supreme Court of Washington held that an exercise of eminent domain for a convention center expansion project containing private developments utilizing most of the project's developed space would not violate the Washington public-use requirement In so doing, the court made the already confusing and contradictory Washington case law concerning public use in the context of eminent domain even more unpredictable. This Note argues that the court should have adopted a public-purpose analysis and thereby clarified the Washington public-use requirement.
