Supreme Court declines ruling on Florida ecology project
The Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal from Florida developers seeking to build an island in Tampa Bay. The ruling would have limited Army Corps authority beyond navigation, with the circuit court ruling the project fell under broader environmental powers. The decision signals stronger conservation leverage, amid other actions like reviewing film obscenity laws and labor benefit disputes. Iowa students faced indecent exposure convictions after a public lecture protest.
