Book excerpt: The story of the evolution of the urban freeway, the competing visions that informed it, and the emerging alternatives for more sustainable urban transportation. Urban freeways often cut through the heart of a city, destroying neighborhoods, displacing residents, and reconfiguring street maps. These massive infrastructure projects, costing billions of dollars in transportation funds, have been shaped for the last half century by the ideas of highway engineers, urban planners, landscape architects, and architects—with highway engineers playing the leading role. In Changing Lanes, Joseph DiMento and Cliff Ellis describe the evolution of the urban freeway in the United States, from its rural parkway precursors through the construction of the interstate highway system to emerging alternatives for more sustainable urban transportation. DiMento and Ellis describe controversies that arose over urban freeway construction, focusing on three cases: Syracuse, which early on embraced freeways through its center; Los Angeles, which rejected some routes and then built I-105, the most expensive urban road of its time; and Memphis, which blocked the construction of I-40 through its core. Finally, they consider the emerging urban highway removal movement and other innovative efforts by cities to re-envision urban transportation.

Download or read book The Snail Darter Case written by Kenneth M. Murchison and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the discovery of a tiny fish in a soon-to-be-flooded stretch of the Little Tennessee River, construction on a dam that had already cost taxpayers $100 million came crashing to a halt. Thanks to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the snail darter was instantly transformed into both an icon for species preservation and a despised symbol of the environmental movement's alleged excesses. The intense legal battle that ensued over its fate was contested all the way to the Supreme Court. The 1978 decision in TVA v. Hill, the Court's first decision interpreting the Endangered Species Act, remains one of the most instructive cases in American environmental law. Affirming an injunction that prohibited the Tennessee Valley Authority from completing the Tellico Dam because it would eliminate the snail darter's only known habitat, the Supreme Court resolved an intragovernmental dispute between the TVA and the Interior Department as well as the claims of the local opponents of the dam. Kenneth Murchison reveals that the snail darter case was just one part of a long struggle over whether the TVA should build the Tellico Dam. He traces disputes over the TVA's mission back to the 1930s and intertwines this with the emergence of federal environmental law in the 1960s and 1970s, culminating in the National Environmental Policy Act and Endangered Species Act, both of which provided a statutory basis for litigating against the dam builders. He continues with an exhaustive analysis of the arguments, deliberations, and decision of the Supreme Court, based largely on original sources, before concluding with a summary of the subsequent congressional actions and administrative proceedings that ultimately allowed the dam's completion. By plumbing the Court's deliberations, the politics behind the law, and the way that law spurred political responses, Murchison clarifies how the story of darter and dam came to exemplify the tensions and conflict between legislative and judicial action. Even though its players were left with only partial victories, TVA v. Hill helped to define the modern role of the TVA and remains an important chapter in the development of federal environmental law. Murchison helps us better understand this landmark decision, which drew the battle lines for current debates over the environment and the policies that protect or regulate its use.

Through thoughtful organization, careful material selection, and hundreds of practice questions, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach, by Dean Jamelle C. Sharpe, trains students to thoroughly understand the law and theory underpinning the modern administrative state. At its core, administrative law is a process-driven course. Nevertheless, traditional casebooks are organized around legal concepts and doctrines rather than the basic stages of administrative decision-making. This casebook improves on the traditional model by following the major steps in the administrative process, thereby providing students with ample grounding in the law and practice governing it. In addition to featuring seminal administrative law decisions, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach incorporates a variety of agency-oriented materials--government reports, charts, diagrams, orders--that give students a fuller sense of how the administrative state's organization and operations. These carefully edited materials model how skilled jurists and administrative lawyers go about their work, how legal problems with that work arise, and how administrative, judicial, and political processes have developed to address them. Critically, this casebook also provides numerous opportunities for guided review, synthesis, analysis, and application of salient legal concepts to facilitate student learning. Dozens of questions, as many or more than any other casebook on the market, place students in the position of lawyers tasked with navigating the administrative landscape. New to the Second Edition: Updated cases. Updated developments in regulatory policy and practices. Professors and students will benefit from: In comparison with casebooks that focus almost exclusively on appellate decisions from Article III courts, this book emphasizes the lifecycle of the administrative decision-making process to place the legal doctrines typically covered by the administrative law course in a clearer practical context. Examples of agency work product and descriptions of agency organization and operations are strategically placed throughout the book. The book also provides explanatory introductions to most topics and describes basic and recurring fact patterns that lawyers encounter when dealing with the issues of administrative law and policy. Most administrative law casebooks are comprised almost entirely of the most unusual or factually complex cases. While there is certainly value in asking students to wrestle with such cases, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach substitutes them for more readily accessible materials of equal or greater instructional value. Where the inclusion of complex cases is unavoidable--as is the case with several seminal decisions-- this casebook provides introductory explanations to give students much needed guidance on their meaning and key concepts. Additionally, Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach includes other agency-oriented materials--reports, charts, diagrams, opinions--to give students a fuller, unmediated sense of administrative work product. Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach also takes a different approach to questions. The questions in traditional casebooks typically focus on issues that are tangential to the materials they follow, or pinpoint conceptual knots that academics spend their careers attempting to unravel. Inspired by Bloom's Taxonomy, the questions in Administrative Law: A Lifecycle Approach focus instead on testing, reinforcing, and extending students' understanding of the administrative law and concepts featured throughout the book. It accordingly provides numerous problems that prompt students to apply what they have learned and to produce the types of analysis expected of skilled administrative lawyers.
