...OUTLINE THE CLEAN AIR ACT I. Introduction A. The clean air act has evolved from a set of principles designed to guide states in controlling sources of air pollution (the 1967 Air Quality Act) to multiple levels of pollution control requirements (the 1970, 1977, and 1990 Amendments to the Act) that the federal government implements by regulation and that the states administer and apply. B. The CAA regulatory programs fall into three categories. 1. New and existing sources of air pollution are reviewed and regulated to ensure attainment and maintenance of ambient air quality levels designed to protect public health and welfare. a. This ambient air quality program is implemented through source specific emission limitations contained in state implementation plans. 2. New sources of pollution are subject to preconstruction review to ensure attainment of air quality standards and the application of more stringent control technology requirements. 3. The act addresses specific pollution problems, including acid deposition, hazardous air pollution, and visibility impairment, through programs written by Congress to address the particular issues associated with each type of pollution. II. Clean Air Act Regulatory Programs A. Air-Quality Regulation 1. The centerpiece of the Clean Air Act is the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) program, which addresses pervasive pollution that endangers public health and welfare. 2.

...The Supreme Court V. The 14th Amendment I. Introduction A. The Supreme court presided over three cases in the span of ten years that grossly affected the country. B. The 1873 ruling of the Slaughter House Cases, the Civil Rights Cases of 1883, and the 1896 case of Plessy V. Ferguson. II. Body A. The 1873 ruling of the Slaughter House Cases. 1. A Louisiana law of 1869 created a state corporation for the slaughtering of livestock. The corporation was given exclusive power to slaughter livestock, and all other private slaughterhouses were required to close. Independent butchers could use the corporation’s facilities for a charge, but could not conduct independent operations. 2. The butchers not included in the monopoly claimed that the law deprived them of their right to "exercise their trade" and challenged it under the 13th and 14th amendments. The highest state court sustained the law. 3. The states have the proper police power to limit slaughter house operations for the health and safety of their residents. The meaning of the 13th and 14th amendments must be derived from the historical context of the problems they were designed to remedy, namely African slavery. The Congress, after the end of the Civil War, sought to strengthen the freedom of the former slaves by passing these amendments. 4. Specifically, they only were meant to guarantee federal privileges, not state privileges, whatever they may be. The "privileges and immunities" clause did not...
