Drinking Water Regulation, Nicholas A. Robinson
Drinking Water Regulation, Nicholas A. Robinson
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
As 1974 drew to a close, President Ford signed legislation extending federal jurisdiction into a new realm: the quality of public drinking water supplies. This Safe Drinking Water Act is an interesting piece of legislation. It probably will become one more bit of data for the MOLDS System, and the Act, fortunately, has provisions which meet some of the criteria which Luther Avery set forth. Before describing the Act, I want to present a few statistics and background facts about this innocent bit of H2O.
Extraterritorial Environmental Protection Obligations Of Foreign Affairs Agencies: The Unfulfilled Mandate Of Nepa, Nicholas A. Robinson
Extraterritorial Environmental Protection Obligations Of Foreign Affairs Agencies: The Unfulfilled Mandate Of Nepa, Nicholas A. Robinson
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This article will focus on the initial Department of State position, as set forth in a legal memorandum which interpreted NEPA as not requiring compliance by a foreign affairs agency. It will then examine the language of the Act and its legislative history. Finally, the article will reveal a pattern of official self-insulation from national environmental policy, illustrated by the Export-Import Bank's continuing refusal to comply with NEPA's requirements. It will suggest that much remains to be done if NEPA is to be fully effective in governing the extraterritorial consequences of the federal government's actions.

Environmental Law--Introduction, Nicholas A. Robinson

Despite the vast mountain ranges, rivers, parks, coasts and forests within the bounds of its jurisdiction, the Second Circuit has had little occasion to decide many cases in the area of environmental law. Nonetheless, sufficient decisions do exist to indicate tentative outlines of the Second Circuit's disposition to date of such cases. On balance, the Second Circuit has carefully and conservatively hewed to the mandate of Congress in its construction of statutes, has mediated the competing demands of development and environmental protection, and has cautiously supported conservationists while sharply criticizing some of their tactics in administrative proceedings. This characterization can …
New Dimensions In Corporate Counseling In Environmental Law, Nicholas A. Robinson
New Dimensions In Corporate Counseling In Environmental Law, Nicholas A. Robinson
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This article's thesis is that attorneys cannot wait any longer to begin practicing environmental law. The bar has a responsibility to insure that our laws are obeyed and implemented. In advising a client regarding compliance with environmental laws, the legal counselor has unique opportunities to advance not only the client's interests, but also the public's interest in environmental protection.
Legislation And The Environment: Individual Rights And Government Accountability, Richard L. Ottinger
Legislation And The Environment: Individual Rights And Government Accountability, Richard L. Ottinger
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
Recent public concern with the pollution threat has generated a rash of suggested solutions. Within the past year councils, agencies, advisory commissions, and billion-dollar programs have been urged upon us. Reorganizations and reorderings of priorities have been called for. The question remains, however, whether this welter of proposals squarely attacks the real problem-the fact that all of our institutions are rooted in the notions of inexhaustible supply and limitless ability to repair. The answer can be found only by examining specific conflicts between technology and environment and analyzing the way our institutions attempt to resolve them.
