Tapped Out: How Newark, New Jersey’s Lead Drinking Water Crisis Illuminates the Inadequacy of the Federal Drinking Water Regulatory Scheme and Fuels Environmental Injustice throughout the Nation
Abstract This article examines the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), and the EPA’s Lead and Copper Rule, as they relate to the nationwide issue of lead in drinking water systems. This article focuses on Newark, New Jersey’s drinking water crisis, illuminated through the Newark Education Workers (NEW) Caucus and Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. (NRDC) v. City of Newark et. al. case, where NRDC argued that the city violated both the federal SDWA and the EPA’s Lead and Copper Rule in its failure to adequately monitor and maintain proper levels of lead in drinking water systems throughout the city.
期刊介绍:
The Environmental Claims Journal is a quarterly journal that focuses on the many types of claims and liabilities that result from environmental exposures. The ECJ considers environmental claims under older business insurance policies, coverage and claims under more recent environmental insurance policies, as well as toxic tort claims. Exposures and claims from all environmental media are considered: air, drinking water, groundwater, soil, chemicals in commerce and naturally occurring chemicals. The journal also considers the laws, regulations, and case law that form the basis for claims. The journal would be of interest to environmental and insurance attorneys, insurance professionals, claims professionals, and environmental consultants.
