Justices divide on defense of Clean Water Act
The Supreme Court questioned broad federal power to regulate inland wetlands under the Clean Water Act. Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Scalia pressed limits, warning that treating ditches and storm drains as navigable waters would subject every drop of field water to federal jurisdiction. The case Rapanos v United States could limit federal authority if inland wetlands are not directly linked to rivers or bays.
