OT Here's a start: Court Limits Clean Water Act NewsMax.com Wires Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2001 WASHINGTON (UPI) – The Supreme Court split 5-4 along ideological lines Tuesday to rule that the Clean Water Act does not give the Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction over isolated wetlands. The ruling was a major defeat for environmentalists. The 1972 Federal Water Pollution Control Act, generally known as the Clean Water Act, plainly gives the Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction over U.S. "navigable waters." At issue before the Supreme Court was whether those "navigable waters" also included isolated ponds or wetlands. In the narrow majority opinion handed down by the court Tuesday, Chief Justice William Rehnquist said they did not. (cont) newsmax.com (yea team)
