COVERING THE COURT'S ENTIRE OCTOBER
CALENDAR OF CASES, INCLUDING ...
ALASKA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION
V. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY ET AL.
Under the Clean Air Act, many states are delegated authority
to make permitting decisions, including determining
the best available control technology (BACT) for new or
modified pollutant-emitting facilities in areas with clean air.
In this case, the Supreme Court addresses the question of
whether the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency can issue
a stop-construction and noncompliance order based
on what it finds to be an unreasonable BACT decision made
by the State of Alaska, which had been delegated
permitting authority under the Clean Air Act.
RAXTHEON COMPANY V. HERNANDEZ
When a former employee sought to be rehired by a
missile systems company after being allowed to quit in lieu
of discharge for testing positive for cocaine,
he learned that the company had an unwritten policy
of never rehiring employees it had terminated
for violating company rules. The Supreme Court
is now asked to decide whether the Americans with
Disabilities Act requires employers to consider
rehiring rehabilitated former employees who are
now drug-free and applying for a new job.
