  2. Liebhart, William et al v. Spx Corporation et al

    Brief in Support of 35 Motion to Dismiss

    Filed January 17, 2017

    RCRA included no specific provisions concerning PCBs. See 42 U.S.C. §§ 6901 et seq. In contrast, Congress enacted TSCA to regulate the manufacture, distribution, use and disposal of “chemical substance[s] or mixture[s],” 15 U.S.C. § 2605(a), and included statutory provisions directing EPA to specifically regulate the use and disposal of PCBs, PCB-containing equipment, and PCB waste.

  3. In re: Triton Asset Leasing GmbH et al

    MEMORANDUM of the United States, Appearing Specially and Not Generally, in Support of Opposed Motion to Lift or Modify the Court's Amended Monition as to Certain Claims and Causes of Action re: [88] MOTION to Lift Stay

    Filed June 1, 2010

    re Not Subject to the Limitation Act As a courtesy to the Court, as well as to the various States and private parties which have sustained damages as a result of the Deepwater Horizon spill, we also point out that OPA expressly permits states to impose additional liability and requirements for oil spills above the liability limits established by OPA 90 and the Limitation Act. OPA states: (a) Preservation of State authorities; ... Nothing in this Act or the Act of March 3, 1851 [the Limitation Act] shall– (1) affect, or be construed or interpreted as preempting, the authority of any State or political subdivision thereof from imposing any additional liability or requirements with respect to-- (A) the discharge of oil or other pollution by oil within such State; or (B) any removal activities in connection with such a discharge; or (2) affect, or be construed or interpreted to affect or modify in any way the obligations or liabilities of any person under the Solid Waste Disposal Act (42 U.S.C. 6901 et seq.) or State law, including common law. ... OPA, 33 U.S.C. § 2718(a).

  4. In re National Security Agency Telecommunications Records Litigation

    Memorandum in Opposition Defendants' Opposition to Plaintiffs' Request for Punitive Damages

    Filed May 21, 2010

    In Dep’t of Energy, the Supreme Court held that the federal government was not subject to punitive liability in the form of civil fines imposed by a State for past violations of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq., and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. 42 U.S.C. § 6901 et seq. In the Clean Water Act, Congress had waived the government's immunity from suit and authorized monetary “sanction[s]” against the federal government as “civil penalties” for violating the Act’s federal-facilities provisions.

  5. EL PASO NATURAL GAS COMPANY v. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA et al

    Memorandum in opposition to re MOTION to Transfer Case, 8 MOTION to Dismiss for Improper Venue, or in the Alternative, to Transfer

    Filed September 12, 2007

    DOE therefore has the obligation under UMTRCA to remediate them. A ruling in EPNG’s favor on this UMTRCA Claim would entirely resolve this matter and would obviate the need for any ruling on EPNG’s secondary and alternative claims under the Resource Conversation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), 42 U.S. C. § 6901 et seq. (the “RCRA Claims”). The critical point requiring rejection of Defendants’ motion is that the statutory venue provision applicable to EPNG’s primary UMTRCA Claim allows venue for such claims in the District of Columbia.

  6. M.C. v. Pactiv Corporation, et al (Lead Case)

    RESPONSE to Motion re MOTION for More Definite Statement, 14 MOTION to Dismiss, 12 MOTION to Dismiss

    Filed April 24, 2006

    Dickinson v. Land Developers Construction Company, Inc., 882 So.2d 291 (Ala. 2003). In a case remarkably similar to the instant case, the Eleventh Circuit ruled that where evidence supports causation and resulting injury, a violation of the RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND RECOVERY ACT, 42 U.S.C. §§ 6901, et seq. (“RCRA”) constitutes negligence per se. Parker v. Scrap Metal Processors, Inc., 386 F.3d 993 (11 Cir. 2004). To prevail on a claim under 42 U.S.C.th § 6972(a)(1)(B), the plaintiff must prove: (1) that the defendant is a person, including, but not limited to, one who was or is a generator or transporter of solid or hazardous waste or one who was or is an owner or operator of a solid or hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility; (2) that the defendant has contributed to or is contributing to the handling, storage, treatment, transportation, or disposal of solid or hazardous waste; and (3) that the solid or hazardous waste may present an imminent and substantial endangerment to health or the environment.

    MOTION for Partial Summary Judgment

    Filed June 29, 2017

    (Litigation in reference to CV-13- 03016-TOR will be referred to as the “CARE suit” or the “underlying action.”) The Complaint alleged violations of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. § 6901 et seq. (“RCRA”), the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, 42 U.S.C. § 11001 et seq. (“EPCRA”), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq. (“CERCLA”).

  10. Center for Biological Diversity et al v. United States Forest Service

    MEMORANDUM OF DECISION AND ORDER - IT IS HEREBY ORDERED granting Defendant's Motion to Dismiss.

    42 U.S.C.A. § 6902(b). To forward this policy, Congress passed the RCRA, 42 U.S.C. §§ 6901 et seq. The RCRA is a comprehensive environmental statute that establishes a “cradle-to-grave” regulatory scheme whereby solid waste is governed from initial treatment through storage and disposal.
