The Dilution Of The Clean Water Act, Mark C. Van Putten, Bradley D. Jackson

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Article argues that the zero discharge goal of the Clean Water Act is more than naive rhetoric. To the contrary, it is the Act's raison d'être, and it is woven into the fabric of the Act's operative provisions. So understood, the zero discharge goal can and should provide continuing guidance for EPA's implementation of the Act.

Preemption In The Fisheries And The United Nations' Law Of The Sea Treaty, Leslie M. Macrae

Penn State International Law Review (1982 - 2011)

This article will examine the potential serious impact on traditional patterns of fishery management in the United States if the Law of the Sea Treaty is eventually signed. Preemption, a process by which the federal government takes over fishery management within the coastal states' territorial waters, may be facilitated, and in some cases required, if the Treaty is adopted.

Water Rights, The Public Trust Doctrine, And The Protection Of Instream Uses, Richard C. Ausness

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Our society uses water for a variety of productive purposes, including domestic, agricultural, mining, manufacturing, and energy development. Most of these uses require physical removal of water from watercourses or ground water aquifers. Water can also serve useful purposes, however, when it remains a lake or stream. Flowing water helps to maintain water quality and furthers other uses such as recreation, aesthetic values, and ecological interests—referred to as “instream uses.”

Large quantities of water must remain in place to safeguard instream uses. At the same time, the increasing demands of consumptive water users are significantly reducing streamflows and lake levels …

New Role For Nonparties In Tort Actions-The Empty Chair, Reed D. Benson

Faculty Scholarship

In courtroom drama, the spotlight rarely falls on an empty chair. That may change, due to a new Colorado statute allowing factfinders to consider the negligence or fault of nonparties in tort actions. The new statute may not give nonparties starring roles in every trial, but it will certainly thicken the plot.

Substantive Decision-Making Under The Washington Shoreline Management Act, William H. Chapman

Seattle University Law Review

The specific purposes of this Article are twofold: first, an analysis of the SMA is set forth and then used in simple statistical comparisons to evaluate decisions rendered by local governments, superior courts, and the Shorelines Hearings Board (SHB) during the period 1974-1983; second, to present a numerical model that represents the verbal interpretation of the SMA with a simple arithmetical equation using weighted variables. These variables correspond to objectives identified in interpretations of the SMA. Decisions of the SHB and appellate courts during this period are explained in a statistical manner through use of the model. Neither computer7 nor …
