Supreme Court limits states power over federal pollution sites
The Supreme Court ruled 7 to 2 that states cannot enforce air and water standards against federally owned facilities such as the Tennessee Valley Authority. Justices held Congress did not grant policing power to states, requiring only that federal installations meet emission standards. Other rulings upheld damages rights for Ralph Nader in overbooking, jury eligibility rules, and privacy concerns on contraception sales.
