Warranties-Implied Warranties Of Fitness And Merchantability Held Applicable To The Sale Of Electricity As A Service Jan 1972

Warranties-Implied Warranties Of Fitness And Merchantability Held Applicable To The Sale Of Electricity As A Service

University of Richmond Law Review

The Uniform Commercial Code has had a great influence on the development of the doctrine of implied warranties in the sale of goods. However, where a transaction primarily involves the sale of services rather than products, the application of implied warranties under the Code is questionable. The technical requirement of a sale has been the principal obstacle to recovery for breach of implied warranty in the area of service contracts when the rendition of service predominates and the transfer of personal property is incidental to the transaction. Although the sale of goods is not the only transaction in which implied …

Introduction—The Evolution Of Washington Siting Legislation, Joseph L. Mccarthy Oct 1971

Introduction—The Evolution Of Washington Siting Legislation, Joseph L. Mccarthy

Washington Law Review

In the state of Washington, ground was broken on April 6, 1943, for the construction of the Hanford Engineer Works. The Hanford plant was to produce plutonium, the component of one type of atom bomb. Smyth reported in the summer of 1945 that "the piles are operating at designed power, producing plutonium, and heating the Columbia River." In a footnote of particular interest today, Smyth added: "The actual rise in temperature is so tiny that no effect on fish life could be expected." During the years since World War II increasing emphasis has been placed upon development of peacetime uses …

Siting Power Plants In Washington State, William H. Rodgers, Jr. Oct 1971

Siting Power Plants In Washington State, William H. Rodgers, Jr.

Washington Law Review

Whatever the causes, it is indisputable that delays in the construction and operation of generating facilities have contributed to supply lagging behind demand. Ominous warnings of black-outs and brownouts are daily news to many Americans. Businesses and hospitals are hastening to develop their own emergency sources of energy. Reductions in loads already have occurred in many parts of the country. The crisis is here and it will bring inevitable reform.

Power And The Environment: A Statutory Approach To Electric Facility Siting, Henry E. Lippek Oct 1971

Power And The Environment: A Statutory Approach To Electric Facility Siting, Henry E. Lippek

Washington Law Review

Great dams and massive power plants supply the energy needed to keep the nation functioning smoothly. At the point of consumption, electricity is the cleanest and most versatile form of energy available. But the benefits of electricity are not without their price. At the point of generation there is an unfortunate by-product: pollution. This comment examines the conflicts between the construction of new generating facilities and environmental interests, and suggests a resolution of the problem in the long-range public interest.

Washington Law Review

The Florida Power and Light Company (FPL) generates, transmits, distributes and sells electric energy in the State of Florida. It is the largest electric utility in that state. FPL is directly connected with four other Florida electric systems in a "power pool" arrangement. One of the other systems is connected (in a similar pooling arrangement) to a further system across the state line. FPL has no direct interstate connections. The electric power on all these systems is supplied as alternating current at a frequency of 60 cycles. Frequency control and synchronization are maintained by all the systems. This permits an …

The Shutoff Of Utility Services For Nonpayment: A Plight Of The Poor, David M. Shelton Jul 1971

The Shutoff Of Utility Services For Nonpayment: A Plight Of The Poor, David M. Shelton

Washington Law Review

The shutoff of essential utility services for nonpayment causes immeasurable hardship to many poor individuals. This comment examines the existing situation and suggests possible reforms aimed at immediate alleviation of the hardships. The role of the courts and regulatory agencies is examined but the primary focus is on the minimum alteration of existing policies necessary to provide immediate and substantial relief. An insight into the existing shutoff policies of utilities is provided by an appendix summarizing a survey of utility policies through the United States.

The Energy Crisis: The Need For Antitrust Action And Federal Regulation, P. Scott Dye, Samuel H. Gillespie, Iii, Steven P. Howard, Franklin M. Tatum May 1971

The Energy Crisis: The Need For Antitrust Action And Federal Regulation, P. Scott Dye, Samuel H. Gillespie, Iii, Steven P. Howard, Franklin M. Tatum

Vanderbilt Law Review

The energy industry faces a crisis--an energy shortage that may not be alleviated for a number of years. Unlike the transitory regional supply shortages of the past, the present crisis is far more pervasive,threatening the industrial and economic progress of the nation. Authorities have predicted that this energy gap, spurred on by the convergence of a variety of circumstances affecting the delicate balance of supply and demand, will have collateral consequences that stagger the imagination, including sharp buyer competition for scarce fuel supplies and spiraling consumer prices for basic fuel services. The very existence of the crisis raises many grave …

Administrative Law—Common Carriers—Route Certification: Regulated Competition Favored Under Public Convenience And Necessity Standard—Black Ball Freight Service, Inc. V. Washington Utilities And Transportation Commission, 74 Wn. 2d 871, 447 P.2d 597 (1968), Anon

Washington Law Review

Plaintiff was a large, diversified land and water carrier operating throughout the Puget Sound area. Since 1962, when it absorbed the only other motor carrier providing such service, plaintiff had had the sole certification for "regular route, scheduled service" between south Kitsap County and the city of Seattle. When the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission [hereinafter cited as W.U.T.C.] granted additional "regular route, scheduled service" authority for the same area to one of the plaintiff's motor freight competitors, plaintiff filed suit to have the board's decision declared invalid. Plaintiff argued that the W.U.T.C.'s finding that "adequate" service was being given …

Jurisdiction--Atomic Energy--Federal Pre-Emption And State Regulation Of Radioactive Air Pollution: Who Is The Master Of The Atomic Genie?, Michigan Law Review May 1970

Jurisdiction--Atomic Energy--Federal Pre-Emption And State Regulation Of Radioactive Air Pollution: Who Is The Master Of The Atomic Genie?, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Pending litigation between the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and Northern States Power Company presents a potential federal-state conflict over the right of a state to impose upon operators of nuclear power plants more exacting pollution control standards than those required by regulations of the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). The AEC issued Northern States Power Company a permit to construct a nuclear power generating plant in Monticello, Minnesota. The regulations under which that permit was issued place a ceiling on the amount of radioactive effluents which can be discharged into the air during the course of the plant's operations. But under …

Some Legal And Economic Aspects Of Industrial Development Financing, Everett H. Falk Dec 1968

Some Legal And Economic Aspects Of Industrial Development Financing, Everett H. Falk

Vanderbilt Law Review

The increasing popularity of industrial development financing suggests that there are considerable benefits to be gained from the intelligent use of these plans. However, before a community commits itself to a particular industrial development project it should develop a clear concept of the direction in which the community is to move and it should seek to define its long-range economic objectives in the context of its ability to support industrial growth and its economic relation to other regions. The states themselves can, with professional assistance,undertake studies to define regional objectives; but statutory standards implemented by state agencies are necessary to …
