Foreword
The mission of the EPA Library Network is to improve access to
information for EPA decision making and the publications in the
Library Management Series support that mission. The Network
provides assistance for EPA staff in libraries located at each of
EPA's ten Regional Offices, and in several agency laboratories, field
offices, research centers at at the Headquarters facility in
Washington, DC.
The EPA Library Network is pleased to present this bibliography,
Environmental Law: A Selective, Annotated Bibliography & Guide to
Legal Research, as the second title in its Library Management Series.
[The first title in the series was Space Planning and Design for
Libraries, July 1991, EPA/IMSD/91-008.] Environmental Law was
compiled by staff in the EPA Region II Library.
Environmental Law: A Selective, Annotated Bibliography & Guide to
Legal Research provides a basic introduction to the process of legal
research and outlines primary and secondary sources of information
relating to environmental law. Each entry is composed of a brief
description of the text followed by a list finding tools such as
citators, databases, indexes, etc. for that source. Each section ends
with a list of references for further reading. Definitions of the
various types of finding tools precede the main body of the
bibliography, and appendices cross-referenced by major
environmental topics follow it. The appendices include a list of
citations for major federal environmental laws, an outline of legal
research strategies for the information professional, and guidelines
for using the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
I would like to acknowledge the hard work of the staff at the Region
II library and their manager, from the Information Services Branch,
and thank them for sharing this publication with the EPA Library
Network. We encourage all of the EPA libraries to share their
publications with the network.

Introduction
This bibliography and research guide is designed primarily for the general reader/researcher or
reference librarian. I hope that it may also be of some assistance to law librarians, who will already be
familiar with the basic techniques of legal research and to and those members of the legal profession
who are not specialists in environmental law.
Because of the complexity of legal research Itself, I have attempted to briefly outline the process of
legal research and then apply that process to environmental law.
'Law* Is defined as a rule or mode of action that is prescribed or formally recognized as binding by a
supreme controlling authority or is made obligatory by a sanction (as an edict, decree, rescript, order,
ordinance, statute, resolution, rule, judicial decision, or usage) made, recognized or enforced by the
controlling authority. 'Environment" can best be broadly defined as the entire complex of climatic,
edaphic and biotic factors that act upon and organism or an ecological community and ultimately
determine its form and survival. As with the 'environment", environmental law, like other types of
specialized fields, does not exist in a vacuum, but draws from the major elements or characteristics of
American law as well as other disciplines.1
According to Arbuckle, eta£. environmental law is best defined not as a book or compilation of
certain laws, but, instead, as a system for using all of the laws for environmental, public health and
safety purposes. It encompasses all the protections for our environment that emanate from:
(1) United States Constitution and state constitutions
(2) federal and state statutes and local ordinances
(3) regulations promulgated by federal, state and local agencies
(4) court decisions interpreting these laws and regulations
(5) treaties between tfie U.S. and other sovereign powers, and
(6) common law3
There are three primary sources for American law. These sources profile the organizational structure
of legal materials. Firstly, there is a tradition of "common law" wherein the law of the land is looked
upon as an evolving body determined by fudges on the basis of the cases that they adjudicate, rather
than a principle or principles expressly pronounced and codified. This evolution occurs as the canons
or opinions are continuously tested and adapted to meet different circumstances and leads directly to
the philosophy of stare decisis. or precedent, which is founded in the concept that people comparably
situated should be analogously dealt with and that judgements should be consistent and not
capricious.
Secondly, federal and state legislatures have increasingly enacted statutes, which provide another
primary source of law. The third important primary source, and one vitally concerned with the
environment, is administrative law. Often much more detailed, regulations may be likened to statutes In
1 The law of other countries will be discussed in the "INTERNATIONAL
LAW" section.
2 Arbuckle, J. Gordon, et al. ENVIRONMENTAL LAW HANDBOOK llth ed.,
(Rockville, MD: Government Institutes, Inc., 1991), p.2.
3Arbuckle,et al, op.cit. p. 2

that they are binding on all people to whom they apply, and administrative adjudications are like Judicial
opinions In that they are binding on the parties In an adversarial proceeding. The Interface between
common and statutory law often produces contradictory situations where the ruling principles In some
areas are determined wholly by case law or statute; other areas are governed partly by case law and
partly by statute, or by statutes as construed and interpreted by the courts.
In addition to the three primary sources of law, statutes, Judicial opinions and administrative law, there
are numerous secondary sources. While only primary sources are authoritative, secondary sources,
which Include treatises, legal periodicals, legal encyclopedias, looseleaf and newsletter services,
restatements, legal directories, dictionaries, language tools such as Words & Phrases, formbooks, and
records and briefs may sometimes have persuasive authority.
Aside from primary and secondary sources, numerous non-legal sources may be considered to be of
Interest. According to Cohen,4 while the study of law developed independently from other disciplines,
Increasing sophistication has demanded that Judicial opinion articulate quite clearly the social,
economic, political and psychological consequences with which they are concerned. Law has become
an Interdisciplinary study and research in materials that may be considered 'nonlegal' Is an inherent
part of legal research. The impact on environmental law is obvious, as the fields of science and
business are intimately connected with the environment and, thus, with the law concerning It.
The field of environmental law is relatively new; interest in it is increasing, as is the amount of material
published. I have selected some material that a legal purist may not consider applicable, but, which, I
believe adds to the body of knowledge. My opinions are my own, based upon my experience as both
a law librarian and special librarian. Comments and questions are welcome, and it is hoped that this
bibliography will be revised on an biennial basis. While it is unwise to try and exhaustively cover the
entire field, I have tried to provide the groundwork to allow anyone, lawyer, law student, academic or
general interest patron to be able to approach topics on environmental law. Obviously, someone simply
interested in environmental impact statements will not need to use the materials on constitutional
research. But, I hope that this document will provide, at the very least, a Jumping-off point for both
readers.
The organization of the bibliography tries to follow the Arbuckle outline as described above, beginning
with the texts of official source materials and continuing on to unofficial sources. I have then included
information on finding tools such as citators, digests, indices, bibliographies, annotations and other
relevant instruments in each section. Definitions of the various types of finding tools precede the main
body of the bibliography, and, in order to avoid as much repetition as possible, I have created four
appendices:
Appendix 1: How to Update the Code of Federal Regulations
Appendix 2: Where to Find It in the CFR: A Brief Index
These appendices contain a chart of cross references by subject matter for major environmental
topics, including some OSHA, Transportation and other Titles as well, and a step-by-step guide to
updating the CFR.
Appendix 3: Federal Environmental Laws: A Quick Reference Table
This is a chart which gives the popular name and citation of major federal environmental legislation.

LEGAL RESEARCH: SOME BASIC DEFINITIONS
2.H.
Here Is a brief Introduction to research terms as they are defined In legal research. Tools that are
standard to other types of Information, I.e. directories, encyclopedias, reference books, or Indexes exist
as well. Case reports are usually the main goal of legal research and most finding tools are considered
In the context of case finding. However, such finding tools can also access statutes, regulations,
secondary and non-legal sources as well.
ANNOTATIONS: An annotation to a case is a commentary, usually describing similar cases or
principles of law. A case is selectively included In a volume; for example, In the American Law Reports
(ALR) series published by Lawyers Co-op. The case Is chosen more as a starting point for the
exhaustive commentary to follow than tor its relative importance. Each annotation Is supposed to be an
extensive treatment of a particular legal issue. Its strength lies In the fact that a lawyer can compare
many fact patterns with the decisions.
AUDIO-VISUAL MEDIA: Audio-visual media, such as videos, audiotapes and other types of non-print
media now form a fairly large source for legal research; some older sources are available only on
microfiche, for example, as are some other hard-to-find sources. Videos on environmental compliance
have become commonplace, as have videos on legal topics generally.
CITATORS: A citator is used to verify that a decision is still 'good' law; that is, It has not be reversed
or otherwise discarded by the legal system. The printed citators: Sheoard's Citations, consists of lists of
citations Indicating every time a published decision is cited or affected by a subsequent decision. Both
online services, LEXIS and WESTLAW, have features that will do the same thing electronically, at a much
greater speed. The term shepardize refers to the use of the printed citators or online services to
determine the currency of a decision.
DICTIONARIES: Dictionaries such as the formidable Blacks's Law Dictionary or Ballentine's Law
Dictionary provide definitions not only of legal terms, translations of Latin and other non-english legal
terms, tables of abbreviations, but pronunciation aides, citation to sources, and useful appendices
containing the U.S. Constitution and information on the Supreme Court. Black's is available on
WESTLAW. Other dictionaries, such as Oran's Law Dictionary for Non-Lawvers. 2d ed. and glossaries
exist to help the specialist and lay reader alike.
DIRECTORIES: Legal directories such as Martindale-Hubbell which list law firms and practitioners by
geographic divisions, may also be used to search out those practitioners or firms which have
environmental law expertise. Other directories, such as Who's Who in the Environment have entire
sections devoted to environmental law practitioners.
DIGESTS: Digests consist of summaries or abstracts of reported cases, usually with some type of
headnote or other identifier, such as a keyword, grouped under alphabetically arranged topics and then
organized by subject within that topic. It functions in the same manner as an index. There are National
Digests as well as individual state and multistate units. There are also specialized digests, such as
West's Bankruptcy Digest.
ELECTRONIC MEDIA: Electronic databases, such as WESTLAW and LEXIS now lorn a major part of
legal research. They contain full-text from a wide variety of sources, both legal and non-legal. They also
contain more reported cases than their printed counterparts, and are more up-to-date. Other electronic
media, such as DIALOG, CD-ROMs and litigation support packages may form a part of legal research
as well.
-------
FORMBOOKS: Formbooks contain copies of standard forms; sometimes a form must be presented in a
certain way, and sometimes the forms may be altered to suit the circumstances. The major formbooks
are American Jurisprudence Legal Forms. 2d. West's Legal Forms. 2d ecL West's Federal Forms and
Bender's Federal Practice Forms. Practice forms are dictated by rules of the court for which they are
destined, i.e. US. District Court or Bankruptcy Court. States often have their own practice forms as well.
General formbooks such as American Jurisprudence Pleading and Practice Forms, rev.ed contain forms
for complaints, motions and orders. Bender's Forms of Discovery contains forms for interrogatories, a
pre-trial function of litigation. In short, practice forms are designed for use before courts or
administrative agencies, and transactional forms are used for specific transactions, such as leases,
wills, deeds.
LEGAL ENCYCLOPEDIAS: The two major legal encyclopedias, Corpus Juris Secundum and American
Jurisprudence. 2d as well as state encyclopedias often provide access to sources. While explaining
and summarizing basic doctrines, they also provide footnote citations to primary authorities. There are
also subject-specific legal encyclopedias.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: A legislative history is a compilation of the documentary records of a
legislative body's formulation, consideration and passage or rejection of a proposed law. The federal
and state legislative process' are similar.
LOOSELEAF SERVICES: A publishing format in which the material is presented in a binder and
reproduces the relevant primary or secondary sources in a particular field, arranges them topically, and
unifies the material with explanatory text, several types of indexes and finding lists. The major advantage
of such presentation is the fact that it is updated frequently: the publisher sends updates as often as
necessary, sometimes on a weekly basis and as the old material is pulled, the new pages are inserted.
Sometimes the service is in the form of a newsletter which is not interfiled.
PRECEDENT: So that judgments should be consistent, a fundamental principle of our legal system is
the doctrine that precedent should be followed. The Latin term stare decisis is often used to describe
this doctrine. Basically it means that prior judgments influence later judgments and a lower court is
bound to follow a higher court's decision or interpretation of a statute. Statutes, while remaining
primary and mandatory authority, are often ambiguous, or may not exactly match the circumstances
surrounding the conflict. It is the judicial interpretation of the statute, not the statutory language which Is
binding in stare decisis.5
PRIMARY SOURCE: In American law, primary sources can be statutes or regulations, as well as
judicial or administrative opinions which occur as a result of cases being adjudicated and reported or
otherwise made available.
RECORDS AND BRIEFS: After an action has been commenced, a documentary record consisting of all
papers filed by either party and any judgments rendered begins to form. If the case goes to trial, a
court record is generated. At the appellate level of litigation, briefs are submitted by opposing counsel.
This package, consisting of the trial transcript, pre-trial documents and appellate briefs is often of value
in the same manner a legislative history is; that is, it demonstrates the basis for the final judgment.
REPORTERS: Reporters form the bedrock of legal research. A reporter is just that: it contains full-text or
memorandum decisions of cases heard before the courts. The West Publishing company is the major
source of reported judicial decisions; in addition, reporters may be official or non-official whether they
*Cohen, op cit, p. 4.
-------
are published commercially or not. The reporter will state whether It Is the official version. Reporters
cover almost every level of the Judicial system, from lower courts to the Supreme Court and may be
topical as well. The finding tools, such as digests or online services are used to locate cases within
these reporters.
RESTATEMENTS: Restatements are a secondary authority that are often cited with respect. The
restatements cover only ten fields of law and were begun with the intention of summarizing and defining
major legal doctrines.
SECONDARY SOURCES: Secondary sources include treatises, legal periodicals and other textual
treatments of the law that may be said to have persuasive, not mandatory authority. Often non-legal
sources are Included In this term, such as scientific, financial, sociological, psychological and other
types of sources.
SHEPARDIZE: See OTA TORS, above.
TREATISES: Treatises focus on a specific or specialized area; they also have extensive footnotes and
are often multi-volume sets. A straightforward, one-volume treatise is called a HORNBOOK, and is
usually used by law students as a text.
WORDS & PHRASES: Words and Phrases is a ninety volume work which is drawn from the West
Reporter series and is the same format as the digests. It is a specialized digest concerning legally
significant words and phrases.

THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STA TES
Considered the oldest legal document in force today, it provides sanction for all federal legislation,
including treaties, acts, Joint resolutions and interstate compacts. A constitution, in Cohen's words Is
the organic document of a political entity and of its legal system. Constitutions set the parameters for
governmental action.' 'The U.S. Constitution is the 'organic legislation of the United States."
While not treated specifically in the Constitution, environmental law may turn upon constitutional
issues, such as the determination of where the primary role in environmental enforcement rests, or how
interstate commerce may be regulated, or, if environmental laws fail to conserve constitutional
safeguards such as equal protection of the laws.
A. Text
The text of the Constitution may be found in many places: most standard reference works, Including
dictionaries, encyclopedias, state and federal statutory compilations and textbooks, as well as
pamphlets printed by the Government Printing Office.
1- Constitutions of United States. National and State. 2d ed. (New York: Oceana, 7 vote., 1974-date).
This is a commercial source, which provides a full-text version not only of the U.S. Constitution, but of
all 50 states as well. Although it is supplemented and revised frequently, it is not well indexed.
2. United States. Congress. House. United States Code Annotated (USCA) (St.Paul: West Publishing
Company, 1927-)
United States Code Annotated provides a ten volume compilation of constitutional law annotated to
both state and federal decisions. All volumes are kept up to date by pocket parts and have abstracts of
decisions and references to secondary sources and to the Code of Federal Regulations.
References to the West Digest system and key numbers, which are essential for further research are
also provided.
3. United States. Congress. United States. The President. United States Code Service (USCS). (San
Francisco: Lawyer's Cooperative Publishing Inc. 1972-)
Another unofficial publication, United States Code Service provides the same information, but
includes fewer annotations than United States Code Annotated. It cross references to other Lawyer's
Co-op publications, such as f/?e American Law Reports and to law review articles. It is updated
annually.

4. Congressional Research Service. The Constitution of the United States of America: Analysis and
Interpretation. (Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, S.Doc. No. 16, 99th Cong., 1st Sess.,
1987)
This Is the only version of the Constitution that is published under congressional direction and is
notable for Its extensive commentary, historical background, legal analysis, and summaries of judicial
Interpretation. It Is supplemented irregularly, the latest being 1990. It has a topical Index, table of cases,
texts of proposed amendments, tables of acts of Congress, state constitutional and statutory provisions,
and municipal ordinances which have been held constitutional and a list of Supreme Court decisions
overruled by subsequent decisions.
5. State Statutory Codes
Almost all state statutory codes provide text of the U.S. Constitution, but only a few, such as Georgia,
annotate it.
B. Finding Tools:
1. ANNOTATIONS
The American Law Reports series, published by Lawyers Co-operative Publishing-Bancroft Whitney,
also treats constitutional issues. ALR. ALR Federal, and Lawyers Edition contain references, Including
citations to state courts. The Index to Annotations consists of five volumes and provides subject
access.

Supplemented on a regular basis.
Shepard's publishes citations for each of the 50 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia as
well. Each state citator has a section referring to the U.S. Constitution. These are state, not federal court
decisions.

other topics may treat upon ft. The digests are fully indexed. See Appendix A for a full listing.
5. ELECTRONIC DATABASES:
WESTLAW or LEXIS/NEXJS can act as a finding tool because most, if not all of the cases and finding
tools, as well as the full text of the Constitution are to be found online.

7. PERIODICAL INDEXES
Both Index to Legal Periodicals and Current Law Index provide subject access to the topic of the
U.S. Constitution. The topic of constitutionality is often addressed in such primarily non-legal sources
as the New York Times Index or PAIS. See Appendices I and V.
8. TREATISES

Procedure. (StPaul: West Publishing Co., 3 vols., 1986)
This broad, widely respected work also comes in a one-volume hornbook version used almost
universally by law students.
STATE CONSTITUTIONS
Every one of the 50 states has its own constitution; unlike the U.S. Constitution, however, they are
often much more detailed, and have been amended much more often. A state constitution may not
deprive persons of federal constitutional rights, but it can guarantee extra protections.
A. Text
Each state's statutory code contains the text of the current constitution of that state. Annotated
versions are the most useful; depending on who publishes the annotated version, one may find cross-
references to other constitutions, the U.S. Constitution, annotations of cases, references to secondary
sources such as law review articles, or other sources. WESTLAW and LEXIS/NEXIS also contains the
state constitutions of those states whose statutes are included.

constitutional provisions in that state's courts and in federal courts. It also includes citations to state
session laws, law reviews and ALR annotations.
4. DIGESTS
The West Digests use 'CONSTITUTIONAL LAW as a keyword to reference both state and federal
constitutional Issues; they also use the topic 'STATES' to discuss state governmental powers.
5. ELECTRONIC DATABASES
In addition to the texts of the constitutions, WESTLAW and LEXIS can be searched for cases on state
constitutional issues as for federal ones.

scholars.
FEDERAL STA TUTES
The process by which a federal law is enacted is often long and complicated, beginning with the
formal introduction of a bill and ending with the passage of a bill or joint resolution and Its approval by
the President. Under the Constitution of the United States, there are only three forms of federal
legislation: acts, Joint resolutions and treaties. There is no essential difference between acts and joint
resolutions. The publication of such law occurs In the following paradigm: SLIP LAW, SESSION LAWS,
CODE and ANNOTATED CODE. Federal law concerning the environment may be found, as will law
concerning all other subjects in the following venues.
A. Text: Slip Laws, Session Laws, Codes, Annotated Codes
1. SUP LAWS
The first official publication of a federal law is the slip law, which is an individually published,
separately paginated pamphlet with no internal indexing but with legislative history references. Each
law is designated by the public law number, the first pan of the number, i.e. 102-541, representing the
number of the Congress, in this case the 102d, which enacted the law. Slip laws are authoritative until
they are superseded by the publication of session laws.
a. United States. Office of the Federal Register.
Public Laws of the United States. (Washington, D.C. :U.S. G.P.O.: Supt. of Docs., U.S. G.P.O.,
distributor n.d.) SU: GS 4.110.
Slip Laws may be obtained from GPO bookstores, or by mail from
Superintendent of Documents
Government Printing Office
Washington D.C. 20402
2. SESSION LAW SERVICES
Session Laws are the slip laws of a legislative session, published chronologically. Session Laws are
the authoritative, binding text of the law. Like other published materials, they may be found in official or
unofficial publications. Official publications are those designated as such by the legislative body
concerned; unofficial ones are usually commercial services; however, on occasion the commercial one
is the official one. The following are the session laws for federal statutes:
a. United States. Office of the Federal Register. United States. Dept. of State. United States Statutes at
Large. (Washington: U.S. G.P.O.: For sale by the Supt. of Docs., U.S. G.P.O., 1789 -). SU: GS 4.111:; AE
2.111.

-------
Published annually, the several volumes for each session bear one volume number. Includes
Presidential proclamations, private and public laws, reorganization plans since 1789. This Is the official.
permanent session law of the United States. Each volume contains an Index to Its contents only.
Through volume 64 (1950-51), full text of treaties are included. There is often a time lag In publication,
and Its lack of broad indexing is a liability: one cannot, for example,fSoarch one volume for statutes on
a specific Issue and then analyze amendments or repeals to determine current law.
b. United States. Congress. United States. The President. United States Code Congressional and
Administrative News fUSCCANl (St.Paul, MN: West Publishing Co. 1941-).
An unofficial advance session law service which issues monthly pamphlets and Is cumulated
annually. This might be termed a permanent commercial version of the official Statutes at Large. It
publishes the texts of statutes as well as selective legislative histories, Including House and Senate
Reports. It provides citing references to Statutes at Large. Presidential proclamations, executive orders,
amendments to court rules and selected administrative regulations. It also provides a cumulative Index
and various tables which aid in finding sections affected by legislative or executive actions.

Another unofficial advance service which provides similar information as USSCAN. above. It does not
reprint material for legislative histories, but does give references to them. It does not, like USSCAN.
cumulate; the advance pamphlets are cumulated into the code service.
3. CODES
As Statutes at Large grew more and more cumbersome to use, Congress decided to codify the
session laws of the U.S., promulgating Revised Statutes of the United States... />, 7874 and 1878, and
after much effort, The Code of Laws of the United States of America of a General and Permanent
Nature, in Force December 7. 1925. The latter is commonly known as the United States Code (USC).
The USC was not positive law, as it did not repeal the prior Statutes at Large. It was prime facie
evidence of law and was rebuttable by referring to Statutes at Large. However, as Congress revised the
USC. It reenacted portions of it into positive law, making, as of today, about 45% positive law. The
unreenacted portion is still orima facie evidence while Statutes at Large remains legal evidence for the
remainder.
a. United States. Congress. House. Office of the Law Revision Counsel. United States. Congress.

Contains the official text of general and permanent laws of the United States. The USC Is arranged In
25 volumes and 50 subject titles, has a general index and several tables, including 'Acts Cited by
Popular Name.' The USC is reissued in a new edition every six years, and updated between editions by
annual bound supplements. The current supplement, Supplement V fills nine volumes. A warning:
sections of the Code are changed only by subsequent legislation. An unconstitutional provision may
remain unmarked in the text.
-------
4. ANNOTATED CODES
a. United States. Congress. House. United States Code Annotated (USCA) (St.Paul: West Publishing
Company, 1927-)
This retains the text and organization of the official version, employing identical title and section
numbers; it has all the reference aids that Statutes at Large has and a/so has abstracts of decisions
and references to secondary sources as well as information on the Constitution and court rules. It
also references to the Code of Federal Regulations and the West Digest system and key numbers,
which are essential for further research. Unlike the official version, It is kept up-to-date by pocket parts,
special and supplementary pamphlets, bound cumulative supplements and replacement volumes. While
not official, It Is wise to check here when trying to determine the currency of a law.
b. United States. Congress. United States. The President. United States Code Service (USCS). (San
Francisco: Lawyer's Cooperative Publishing Inc. 1972-)
Another unofficial publication which preserves more closely the context of Statutes at Large and
clarifies the text. It also provides reference and research guides and cross references to the American
Law Reports (ALR) annotations. It is updated much in the same way as USCA. and also has extensive
information on the Constitution and court rules.
B. Finding Tools
Generally, there are fewer finding tools for statutory research: a prime gateway is the use of
annotated compilations described above. In a specific area of law, such as environmental law, the use
of a topical looseleaf service such as BNA's Environment Reporter, which prints the text and updates of
relevant federal laws is sometimes sufficient. However, here are the genera/ finding aids:
1. Citators
Statutes can be 'shepardized' which is the term for using the unique Sheoard's Citations to update
references. To update a statute you may use Shepard's United States Citations. Shepard's State Citators
and Sheoard's Federal Law Citations in Selected Law Reviews. In the electronic databases, it is
possible to update statutes by searching full-text or periodical databases; often the material is newer
than the printed Sheoard's.
2. Electronic Databases
WESTLAW contains the Code found in the United States Code Annotated, together with its references
to Statutes at Large, the United States Code, and the United States Code Annotated Index. It also
contains United States Public Laws (current) and 'historical' (1989-1990).
LEXIS contains the Code as published in United States Code Service, including history notes and
cross references to other Lawyer's Co-op publications. It also contains 'current1 public laws.
3. Indexes
The vastness and complexity of the Code demands the use of detailed indexes. The official U.S.
Code is well indexed, and the index is updated with the supplements; the indexes in U.S. Code Service
and U.S. Code Annotated are formed from the official index and updated more frequently. Statutes at
10
-------
Large has an Index for each volume only. U.S. Code Congressional Administrative News have Indexes
for not only each annual volume, but a cumulative one for each monthly issue as well.
4. Tables
Straightforward citations are frequently not provided; thus, tables must be frequently consulted.
Popular name tables which cross-reference to the correct citations exist in all three editions of the
Code, as well as USCCAN.
Parallel reference tables provide cross references from session laws to codes and vice versa; they
also provide access to revised and recodified statutes as well as public law numbers. All versions of
the Code have such tables.
STATE STATUTES
A. Text
State statutes are enacted in a manner analogous to federal laws. They are first published as slip
tows, then as session laws and finally as codes. Often session laws are published In advance sheets
well before the end of a particular legislative session. Publishing practices vary from state to state, but
all fifty states publish statutory material; some states publish competing official and non-official statutes.
Depending on the publisher, a code may have annotations, cross-references or other aids. It is very
important to know if the code is official or unofficial: most state codes contain a certificate or prefatory
note in the front of each volume to indicate its status as authority.
Annotated codes are usually updated every year and provide reference aids. LEXIS and WESTLAW
have added state statutes to their online systems; all states are not represented, and It is wise to look
at the directory or scope screen to verify the currency of the database, but multistate statutory searches
can be facilitated by an online keyword search.
B. Finding Aids
Like federal statutes, state statutes have a paucity of finding aids.
1. Bibliographies
a. Foster, L and Boast, C. Subject Compilations of State Laws: Research Guide and Annotated
Bibliography (New York: Greenwood Press, 1981)
b. Schultz, J. Comparative Statutory Sources: U.S. Canadian. Multinational. 3d ed. (New York: Heln,
1987)
Both of the above are extensive surveys of state law and can be accessed by subject. The Foster Is
arranged by subject, with descriptive indexes and annotations and has been supplemented through
1989.
11
-------
2. Cftfton
In addition to the Shepard's mentioned above, Shepard's has various state citators that are often
more up-to-date than the code supplements.
3. Digests
While not a digest, Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory contains digests of state laws on a variety of
standardized subjects and provides references to statutory primary sources.
4. Guides
a. Fisher, M. L Guide to State Legislative and Administrative Materials (New York: Rothman, 1988)
b. Hellebust, L. State Legislative Sourcebook (New York: Government Research Institutes, annual)
The above provide information on the availability of slip laws, administrative codes, session laws and
all manner of state legislative publications in a clear and concise fashion. Telephone numbers are
included.
5. Indexes
Almost all codes, annotated or otherwise, have indexes like the three versions of the U.S. Code.
€. Tables
Most statute codes have parallel reference tables, but not all have popular name tables. To access
popular names for state citations Shepard's Acts and Cases bv Popular Names: Federal and State can
sometimes provide access not available in the code index.
LOCAL LAW
Environmental issues are heavily regulated at the local level of government; consequently, local law Is
an important factor of research. However, local law sources are often poorly indexed, erratically
published and sparsely supplemented.
Most cities have charters, which resemble constitutions, and their laws are most often termed
ordinances. Large cities, such as New York, Chicago, etc have published collections of their charters
and ordinances of codes. Generally, no case law is referenced. Often, the only way to
comprehensively access such codes is via an online service specific to a state, such as New York
Legislative Retrieval Service which contains New York City laws.
In general, individual ordinances, when they can be identified, can be obtained from the Clerk's Office
of the County, city or town. Larger cities have municipal reference libraries that may be of help. Some
larger agencies, or departments may also have libraries, or information centers.
State digests, state legal encyclopedias and local practice sets often include references to local laws.
WEST'S Digest series has several key numbers that might prove helpful, such as MUNICIPALITIES,
LOCAL LAW, etc.
12
-------
Shepard's provides access to ordinance law citations In their state statutory cltators and give
coverage to county, city and town /aw? Sheoard's also publishes Sheoard's Ordinance Law
Annotations, which provides brief abtftacts of decisions under broad subject headings. It also has a
table of cases and Is supplemented annually. It is different from the state citators in that It allows
muftistate access to local law problems.

CASES
COURT DECISIONS
Court decisions are the basis for most of American law. The concept of stare decisis. which allows
tow to build on precedent Is the motivation behind the majority of decisions. Most lower (trial) courts
arrive at their decisions by jury verdict; however, a verdict may also be handed down by a fudge In a
non-Jury trial or, in certain circumstances, the judge may direct a verdict even though a jury is present.
In administrative proceedings, it is common to simply have one or more judges to hear and decide a
case. Appellate courts, whether state or federal, consist of judges in varying numbers. In every
jurisdiction there is a 'court of final appeal', whose decisions are binding on all lower courts. Most law
is generated at these higher levels.
Environmental cases, if they cannot be negotiated, may be tried by administrative law judges,
appealed to the Environmental Appeals Board or litigated in state or federal courts. Administrative
decisions are discussed in ADMINISTRATIVE LAW, below. Locating state and federal cases for
examination is done by the same legal research techniques as for cases on any other topic.
CASE FINDING: Reporters, Digests and Annotations
The three main sources for cases are reporters, which give full text of judicial decisions, digests,
which are organized in a subject-specific manner and provide citations and abstracts of points of law,
and annotations, in which legal scholars discuss selected cases and provide citations of relevant
cases.
Cases are reported in both print and electronic media (LEXIS/WESTLAW) at every level, both in
official and unofficial versions. However, not all cases are reported; in fact, only a small percentage are.
It may be said that the electronic media possess more cases and have them sooner than the print
versions, but even they do not have all cases from all jurisdictions! It should be noted that only
WESTLAW has the regional reporters and may be searched by key number, but that LEXIS has case
reports of the same courts. Consult each vendor for specific information. Here is a brief breakdown of
the hierarchy of reports. Incidentally, it should be mentioned that West Publishing Company publishes
the majority of case reports and the digests, discussed below.
REPORTERS
Federal Reporters
The Supreme Court:
United States Reports (official)
U.S. Supreme Court Reports (unofficial, Lawyer's Co-op)
Supreme Court Reporter (unofficial, WEST)
United States Law Week (looseleaf, fastest advance sheet)
Lower Federal Courts:
Federal Reporter (WEST; Circuit Courts of Appeal)
Federal Supplement (WEST; District Courts, Court of International Trade, Judicial Panel on Mulitstate
Litigation)
14
-------
Specialized Reporters: (selected)
Wesfs Bankruptcy Reporter
Wesfs United States Claims Court Reporter
Wesfs Military Justice Reporter
In addition to the West Specialty Reporters, looseleaf and topical reporters abound. Most
environmental law cases, especially those adjudicated at the administrative level will be found In
commercial looseleaf reporter format as the EPA does not have an official reporter.
State reporters, both official and unofficial are published by West and others; look for a stamp or
Imprint to tell whether It is official or not.
West also publishes Its National Reporter System, which reports in multistate regional volumes, New
York and California excluded, the appellate court decisions from all Jurisdictions. New York and
California have their own reporters.
KEY NUMBERS & DIGESTS
The West Publishing company developed a Key Number system which is actually a subject index to
the law. The structure is simple: the law is divided into seven major categories: Persons, Property,
Contracts, Torts, Crimes, Remedies and Government. Each of these is further subdivided Into over 400
Individual digest topics, which are then subdivided even further. These subtopics are then assigned
key numbers, which are uniform in each reporter or in WESTLAW. Digest topics are also uniform
throughout the digest system. Each case is assigned one or more key numbers abstracting a point of
law mentioned in the case. Then it is assigned to a digest topic for inclusion in a digest. In the
reporter the key numbers appear in the headnotes which are small abstracts of the point of law in
question; in the digests, the key numbers group together similar cases under a digest topic. Key
numbers and digest topics can be used to locate relevant cases in any of the digests, whether for state
or federal cases. Here is a quick breakdown of the digest system:
United States Supreme Court Digest
Federal Practice Digest
Bankruptcy Digest, as well as other specialty digests
State Digests
Regional Digests
Additionally, West publishes the American Digest System, a mammoth digest system which allows a
researcher to go back as far as 1658. The earlier digests do not follow key number sequence, but are
cross referenced to key notes. Unfortunately these digests are unwieldy and sometimes lack basic
tables like a Defendant-Plaintiff table.
Finding cases is simply a matter of approach; the method will vary only with the information on hand.
If you have a citation to a case you know to be relevant, simply go to the relevant reporter or access
either WESTLAW or LEXIS. Deciphering citations can be a problem; most cases are cited according to
the standards of the BLUEBOOK. or A Uniform System of Citation. 15th ed. (Cambridge, MA: The
Harvard Law Review Association, 1992). Originally devised to standardize material in law review, the
Bluebook is used in writing most, but not all legal citations. It is often possible to use It to determine
not only how to abbreviate, but what an abbreviation means. Other works that assist in this complicated
task are Prince, M.M. Bieber's Dictionary of Legal Abbreviations. 3d ed. (New York: W.S. Hein, 1988),
15
-------
Powers, M.D., The Legal Citation Directory (? Franas Press, 1971) and both of the major legal
dictionaries, Black's and Ballentine's have tables of abbreviations.
Once translated and retrieved, the headnotes will supply relevant key numbers for further searching
In either reporters, digests or WESTLAW. If you have part of a citation, consult any of the numerous
tables found In either the reporters or digests: 'Cases Reported' or Plaintiff-Defendant/Defendant-
Plaintiff Tables. LEXIS or WESTLAW can also search on partial or whole citations.
If you have a topic, determine the relevant key numbers and search either the reporters or digests
with them; you may also search key numbers on WESTLAW and topics on LEXIS. Each West Digest also
includes Descriptive-Word Indexes to assist the search. WESTLAW and LEXIS allow for term
combination searching as well as searching by Jurisdiction or even by judge!
OTHER DIGESTS
While West publishes the most digests, Lawyers Co-op publishes the United States Supreme Court
Digest. Lawyer's Edition which is set up like the West product, but which some feel is better adapted to
the Supreme Court issues. Their headnotes, however, cannot be used to find lower court decisions,
unlike the West headnotes. West publishes 47 state digests, but in some states there are competing
digests. Topical publishers such as CCH (Commerce Clearing House) and Clark Boardman Callaghan
publishes such digest-like looseleafs as Standard Federal Tax Reports and Federal Rules of Evidence
Digest.
ANNOTATIONS
Annotated reporting, primarily through the American Law Reports series, published by Lawyers Coop.,
consists of a volume containing about twenty cases, each followed by a comprehensive analysis of
decisions relevant to the legal issues in the reported case. Its main advantage is that it gathers
together cases which have been selected for their relevance, and the analysis is done by legal
professionals. The fact patterns in each annotation are compared to the reported case, providing
useful information for practitioners and the volumes are updated by pocket parts, or in the case of ALR,
with ALR Blue Book of Supplemental Decisions and in the case ofALR2nd Later Case Service Volumes.
A 'Latest Case Service' is also available for ALR2d, ALR3d, ALR4th, ALR Federal and Lawyers Ed. 2d.
Cross references and finding aids are also provided.
Here is a breakdown of the ALR series:
ALR (First Series) 1919-48 175 volumes
ALR (Second Series) 1948-65 100 volumes
ALR (Third Series) 1965-80 100 Volumes
ALR (Fourth Series) 1980- Current
ALR Federal 1980- Current
Subject access to the series is provided by Index to Annotations, a five-volume set, ALR digests and
material can also be searched on LEXIS.

OTHER SOURCES FOR CASES
*r or
Aside from computer searching and the above mentioned sources, cases may be found In Shepard's
Citations, annotated statutes, Words and Phrases (a West Publication which consists of 90+ volumes of
headnote abstracts defining or interpreting a particular word or phrase), encyclopedias such as Corpus
Juris Secundum and American Jurisprudence. 2d. state or subject specific encyclopedias, periodical
articles, treatises, and commercial looseleaf or reporting services.
IS IT GOOD LAW?
Cltators assist the verification of whether a case is still 'good law". The publisher, Sheoard's. has
given Its name to the actual verification process: sheoardlzina. While the process may now be done on
the computer with greater speed and accuracy, the printed version still exists as a series of complex
tables. The rationale is simple: each case is cited and then a series of citations which list each time
the case Is mentioned. If a specific action was taken, I.e. overruled, noted, or affirmed a code letter
appears. A standard Shepard's citation is in the following order: parallel citations (If a case appears In
more than one reporter), case history citation, treatment and related cases, secondary materials and
annotations. As a legal research tool It is invaluable if a 'good' case is known because It leads to other
similar citations. Citators are published for every conceivable court and jurisdiction as well as In
topical format. LEXIS and WESTLAW have features, called AUTO-CITE and INSTA-CITE, respectively that
verify the accuracy of citations without providing the depth of coverage that Shepard's does. Their
advantage is that the material Is input more quickly than the Shepard's and may be more current.
Sheoard's topical citators do include agency citations of federal court cases, but currently the
environmental law citator cites only U.S. Supreme Court and lower federal court cases reported in the
following:
BNA Environment Reporter
ELI Environmental Law Reporter
U.S. Supreme Court Reports, Lawyers Ed.
U.S. Supreme Court Reports
Supreme Court Reporter
Federal Reporter
Federat Supplement
Federal Supplement
Federal Rules Decision
Bankruptcy Reporter
Court of Claims Reports
Claims Court Reporter
It includes citations to treatises, newsletters and law reviews as well.
Sheoardizina environmental cases is approached in the standard way, via the citation using the
federal or state citator, LEXIS, WESTLAW, AUTO-CITE or INSTA-CITE.
UPDATING: POCKET PARTS, ANNUAL SUPPLEMENTS, FILINGS.
Because the currency of law is vital, a word is in order on various methods of updating legal
materials. Computer databases, of course, are usually updated daily. Print material is another story.
17
-------
Pocket parts, which slip In the back of hardbound volumes of anything from statutes to treatises MUST
be consulted when researching!!! An annual supplement Is usually a pocket part by another name,
although sometimes It requires interfiling. Some supplements are Irregular. Filings for looseleaf
services, sometimes updated on a weekly basis must be kept up to date. Many different types of works
are updated In some fashion on a regular or irregular basis. It is crucial for the researcher to consult
these updates because a point of law may have been expanded or overruled, a statute added or
repealed or any number of changes made! Some practitioners go so far as to consult the pocket parts
before the main body of the text. Knowing when and how frequently material is updated is of
paramount importance.

ADMINISTRA TIVELA W/REGULA TIONS
law Is the product of the non-legislative authoritative facets of government; on the
federal level this means the President, the various offices of the executive branch and the many
Independent administrative agencies, such as the Environmental Protection Agency. Administrative
lawmaklng closely resembles statutory and judicial law; however, the regulations of agencies are often
considered subordinate or delegated legislation in that they can be accorded less weight than statutes
or judicial decisions. In point of fact, however, such regulations carry substantial authority in many
aspects of dally life as they flesh out* statutes. An agency is usually mandated to create detailed rules
for statutory implementation and enforcement.
These federal agency regulations are published in formats parallel to Statutes at Large and United
States Code. Just as Statutes Is a chronological record and the Code is a subject compilation, the
regulations are published chronologically in the Federal Register (FR) and then compiled Into the Codq
of Federal Regulations (CFR}. Agencies also issue decisions which may be reported in the same way
other cases are. Presidential documents appear in various sources, including the Federal Register. Title
3 of the Code of Federal Regulations as well as other places.
I. Regulations of Federal Administrative Agencies
As described above, rules or regulations of federal administrative agencies, while 'subordinate' can
be extremely powerful. Such rules, like the decisions of agencies are subject to judicial review and
such review may set standards or determine limitations of administrative action.
A. The Federal Register and the Code of Federal Regulations
a. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. Federal Register
(Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Administration, General
Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., daily, 1936 -)
The Federal Register was bom when public furor over lack of access to government Information
concerning executive orders, regulations, and other legal documents reached epic proportions. The
Federal Register Act, Ch. 417, 49 Stat. 500 (1935) was designed to establish a central repository for the
publication of federal proclamations, orders, regulations, notices and other documents; this repository
would be published daily and would act as constructive notice to anyone affected by Its contents.
The Federal Register is published every business day and contains Presidential Proclamations,
Executive Orders, and other executive documents, rules and regulations, proposed rules and
regulations, regulatory agendas, notices of hearings, notices such as application deadlines or license
revocations and notices of Sunshine Act meetings.
The arrangement of material is determined by the title of the Code of Federal Regulations in which It
affects. There is a Table of Contents arranged by agency followed by a list of CFR Parts Affected in that
issue; at the end of each issue there is a list of telephone numbers to call for assistance, a table of
pages for each Federal Register issue published that month listing both the date and the page, a
cumulative List of CFR Parts Affected for the current month, a list of public laws received that month
and a weekly checklist of current CFR volumes.
19
-------
b. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. Code of Federal
Regulations (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Service,
General Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., 1939 -)
The CFR also came into existence with the Federal Register Act, but was not actually published until
1939. The regulations are codified in a manner similar to the United States Code: however. Title 40,
dealing with the environment, has no direct statutory correlation. Within each title, regulations are
arranged by agency, not subject, and the regulations of that agency are subdivided into parts and
subparts and then further into sections. The Code issued annually, with the current year's publication
superceding the previous one; the exception to this is Title 3, which contains Presidential material.
The other titles are issued within the year on a quarterly basis. The text itself is preceded by authority
and source notes; the authority note cites the statutory authority and the source note cites the Federal
Register. It should be noted that although Title 40 is the main one concerned with the environment,
other tities may be of use; for example Title 29 (LABOR), Title 46 (SHIPPING), Title 50 (WILDLIFE and
FISHERIES), Title 43 (PUBLIC LANDS) Title 21 (FOOD and DRUGS), or TITLE-49 (TRANSPORTATION).
Finding Tools
1. Electronic Media
Both WESTLAW and LEXIS contain full-text of the current CFR and the historical CFR from 1984-91 as
well as coverage of the Federal Register since 1980. DIALOG contains full-text coverage of the Federal
Register since 1988, as well as Federal Register Abstracts since 1977. CD-ROM products also exist for
the Federal Register from various dates, and some titles of the CFR. Titie 40 of the CFR is being
produced by a number of vendors including Information Handling Services and Counterpoint.
2. Indexes
Both Federal Register and Code of Federal Regulations have official and commercial indexes. CFR
has an annual Index and Finding Aids which consists of an index of subjects and agencies. It is very
broad and not very helpful in zeroing in on specific topics as it refers to parts as opposed to specific
sections. Two commercial publishers, Congressional Information Service and R.R. Bowker, publish
indexes to the CFR:
a. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. Index and Finding
Aids (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Service, General
Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., 1939 -)
b. Code of Federal Regulations Index (New York: R.R.Bowker, 1988)
c. CIS Index to the Code of Federal Regulations (Washington: Congressional Information Service,
1981-)
The Bowker includes several indexes for specific subjects, a titie-by-titie index and is supplemented
twice a year. The CIS has four annual volumes, with very detailed indexing by subject and geographic
location. Both works are published after the official version.
The Federal Register also has official and commercial indexes. The official Federal Register Index is
published monthly and consists of a consolidation of the entries in each issue's Table of Contents,
arranging them agency, and then subject within agency. Each month's index cumulates those earlier in
20
-------
the year. Congressional Information Service publishes a more detailed index which cumulates until the
publication of semi-annual bound volumes.
d. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. Federal Register
Index (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Service, General
Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., monthly)
e. CIS Index to the Federal Register (Washington: Congressional Information Service, weekly)
The CIS Index to the Federal Register provides coverage of all Federal Register documents, except
Sunshine Act Notice and is divided into four sections: a calendar of effective dates and comment
deadlines, and Indexes by subjects and names, by CFR section numbers affected and by agency
docket numbers. The subject index is comprehensive and provides numerous access points.
3. Lists
a. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. LSA: List of CFR
Sections Affected (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records Service,
General Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., monthly)
b. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. LSA: List of CFR
Sections Affected 1949-63 (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records
Administration, General Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., 19xx)
c. United States. Office of the Federal Register.; United States. National Archives. LSA: List of CFR
Sections Affected 1964-72 (Washington: Office of the Federal Register, National Archives and Records
Administration, General Services Administration; For Sale by Supt. of Docs., 19xx)
The LSA Is essentially & list of those sections that have been removed, amended or otherwise
affected in the Code of Federal Regulations. It is used as a tool to update or verify the currency of a
given regulation. The monthly lists cumulate until the next annual edition. Each CFR contains a list of
those sections affected since January 1, 1973; the two historical volumes described above contain such
information before that date.
4. Reporters
In addition to the full text of the CFR being found in the electronic media, commercial reporters often
contain text and legislative histories as well as reporting cases. These topical reporters offer a great
deal of information and comprehensive reference material as well as case reporting. They will be
discussed in Secondary Sources, below.
5. Tables
The Index and Finding Aids volume of the CFR provides several tables including a 'Parallel Table of
Authorities and Rules.' It lists every statute and presidential document cited by an agency as authority
for its rules and consists of several sections for United States Code. Statutes at Large, public law
numbers and presidential documents.

//. Decisions of Federal Administrative Agencies.
The Environmental Protection Agency fulfills it mandated function with the exercise of quasi-judicial
power in determining cases and questions arising under statutes and regulations. The EPA functions in
other ways as well: negotiation, enforcement and research, but, like the other independent agencies, is
mainly Involved in fact-finding and the application of agency regulations. Most hearings are conducted
by an administrative law fudge who issues the initial decision. The decision can usually be appealed to
a higher authority, and review may eventually occur In federal court, usually, but not always, the U.S.
Court of Appeals. The EPA issues opinions and decrees, just as does the court system; like court
decisions, they carry some of the weight of stare decisis. but are not as strictly bound by It as the
courts are.
Unfortunately, EPA decisions are not reported in print in an official, systematic and well-Indexed way,
as are the decisions of the ICC, the FTC, the Department of Agriculture and others. If an administrative
decision is appealed in a federal court, the report of the case will appear in the relevant federal
reporter, and may be searched for via the standard research procedures such as digests or cltators.
cases below this level are often difficult to locate; the fact is, negotiated settlements form a large part of
agency determinations. The documentation concerning the outcome of such determinations is often
difficult, but not impossible, to track down.
As of March 1, 1992 the Environmental Appeals Board of the USEPA has come into existence as the
final Agency Decision maker in administrative appeals arising under the environmental statutes
administered by EPA. These statutes are Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, CERCLA, EPCRA, FIFRA,
Marine Protection and Sanctuaries Act, Safe Drinking Water Act, RCRA, and TSCA. Decisions of this
board are final and cannot be further appealed to the Administrator. A new publication EPA
Administrative Law Reporter, discussed under 'REPORTERS', below, attempts to provide coverage for
all decisions of the Board, as well as selected decisions of the Regional Administrative Law Judges.
Electronic databases now contain more and more reports of agency opinions, decisions, or
memoranda. For printed sources, often the best, and sometimes, only recourse is to use topical
reporters such as BNA Environment Reporter. Toxic Law Reporter. Chemical Regulation Reporter.
International Environment Reporter. ELI Environmental Law Reporter, or CLR Chemical Waste Litigation
Reporter. The electronic databases are by far the most complete and easiest to access, but print
versions of decisions may also be tracked down from the EPA. Any EPA library will be pleased to
assist with further information where possible; the special libraries listed below are excellent resources
for information and assistance. A complete discussion of electronic databases and of looseleaf
reporters will be found in their respective sections under SECONDARY SOURCES.
1. Finding Tools
As might be expected, finding tools are very limited both in existence and in scope. Reference to
agency decisions are usually not covered by the ALR series, legal encyclopedias or WEST Digests. The
EPA, which, unlike other agencies such as the FTC or NRC does not have an official reporter, is best
accessed through the topical reporters mentioned below and discussed fully in SECONDARY
SOURCES:
a. Chemical Regulation Reporter (Washington: Bureau of National Affairs, Inc., weekly)
b. Environment Reporter (Washington: Bureau of National Affairs, Inc., weekly)
c. Environmental Law Reporter (Washington: Environmental Law Institute, monthly)
22
-------
d. Chemical Waste Litigation Reporter (Washington: Computer Law Reporter, Inc. monthly)
e. Toxics Law Reporter (Washington: Bureau of National Affairs, Inc., monthly)
f. Daily Environment Reporter (Washington: Bureau of National Affairs, Inc., daily)
These looseleaf/newsletter services have good Indexes offering consolidated treatment of
administrative, legislative and Judicial actions. The topical databases In WESTLAW and LEXIS Include
both agency and court decisions. Sheoanfs topical citators do include agency citations of federal court
cases, but currently the environmental law citator cites only U.S. Supreme Court and lower federal court
cases. Law review articles may often mention administrative cases in conjunction with court decisions
and are accessed by the printed standard indexes, Current Law Index or Index to Legal Periodicals as
well as their online versions.
2. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Sources
The EPA provides a great many information sources concerning both the regulations It enforces and
Its own activities; much of this material is easily available to the public, some of it must be obtained
under the Freedom of Information Act. The United States is divided into 10 Regions; you may contact
either Headquarters in Washington, or your regional office or library for information. The EPA databases
will be discussed in Secondary Sources: Electronic Databases, below. Here are some major access

f. Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER)
The Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response is responsible for the development of guidelines
and standards for the land disposal of hazardous wastes and for underground storage tanks; technical
assistance In the development, management and operation of solid waste management activities,
analyses on the recovery of useful energy from solid waste, the development and implementation of a
program to respond to hazardous waste sites and spills and the enforcement of applicable laws and
regulations. They also maintain a hotline which can be of assistance in obtaining information: 800-424-
9346. OSWER also issues the following:
Records of Decision (RODS)
Records of Decision are public documents that explain which cleanup altemative(s) will be used to
will be used at National Priority List sites under CERCLA (Superfund). They are issued after Remedial
Investigation/Feasibility Studies (RI/FS) and are part of the written administrative record which may be
subject to judicial review. RODS are available in printed form from OSWER or via the RODS Database
which is discussed in the database section below. EPA libraries usually carry RODS, as well.
OSWER Directives
OSWER Directives are issued dealing with policy, strategy and guidance. OSWER Directives function
as 'regulations within regulations' as their scope is wide ranging. While they are not 'law' In the same
sense as the Code of Federal Regulations, they carry considerable policy weight in everything from
recovery from bankrupt PRPs to Indian Tribal involvement in Superfund. They are available in print form
from OSWER and in the OSWERDS database. EPA libraries also carry the OSWER directives.
F. The Freedom of Information Act
The Freedom of Information Act allows the public to gain access to the government's information. A
FOIA request, as it is called, must be in writing and must specifically demand records held or thought
to be held by the U.S. EPA The EPA FOIA program is overseen by the Headquarters FOIA Office, which
coordinates the program, develops and reviews policies and procedures, provides advice to HQ and
regional FOIA personnel, prepares the annual FOIA report to Congress, routes and tracks FOIA requests
and deals with documents not readily accessible to the public. To initiate a FOIA request, contact your
regional EPA Office or
U.S. EPA Freedom of Information Act Office
A-101
401 M Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20460
(202) 260-4048
The EPA also publishes a Freedom of Information Act Manual which details not only procedures for
making a FOIA request, but also lists fee structure, procedures for the release of records, when records
may be withheld, exemptions, business confidentiality, and appeals.

/// Presidential Documents
The President of the United States has substantial lawmaking authority In his own right, as well as
administrative supervisory powers and legislative veto powers. As President he may issue executive
orders, proclamations and other documents which have legal intent and effect.
Executive Orders and Proclamations
1. TEXT
Executive orders and proclamations have essentially the same legal effect the first is issued to
government officials and proclamations to the nation as a whole, but both are concerned with a wide
variety of activity. Both become effective when published in the Federal Register and are cumulated
annually in We 3 of the CFR. Each volume of Title 3 is unique; it is necessary to retain It, unlike the
other volumes which may be discarded when the new edition comes out. Compilations of the years
1936 to 1975 exist, as does a compilation of the documents of Herbert Hoover (1929-1933).
Text of presidential documents will also be found in U.S. Code Congressional and Administrative News
and the U.S. C.S Advance. Proclamations only dating from 1846 are printed in Statutes at Large and
proclamations and orders issued under the aegis of a particular statute are printed in United States
Code. United States Code Annotated and United States Code Service. Proclamations and orders are
also available on LEXIS and WESTLAW.
2. FINDING TOOLS
A Citators
Judicial and law review citations are included in the coverage of Sheoard's Code of Federal
Regulations Citations, where they are treated like regulations, with symbols indicating the various
courts' decisions.
b. Indexes
1- CIS Index to Presidential Executive Orders and Proclamations (Washington: Congressional
Information Service, 1987)
The first part of this set covers 1787 to 1921, the second, 1921 through 1983, up to the
commencement of the CIS Federal Register Index. The index covers numbered and unnumbered
documents, is indexed by subject, personal name and date, and provides cross-references between
orders affecting or affected by other orders. It also contains a complete bibliography.

This publication arranges proclamations and orders by subject in fifty titles similar to those in CFR.
Its coverage Is April 13, 1945 to Jan. 20, 1989. Orders are printed in numerical order within each of the
fifty titles, and there are disposition tables indicating current status, amendments and revocations.

In addition to the tables discussed below, Title 3 has a subject index which is cumulated for years
before 1976. There are also separate volumes for the years 1936-65.
3. Tables
The annual cumulation of Title of the CFR has several tables: lists of proclamations, executive
orders and other documents, documents affected during the year, statutes cited as authority, Including
a breakdown by title, Statutes at Large. United States Code and public law number. The tables are
cumulated, as is the subject index described above.
Other Presidential Documents
The president may also issue administrative orders, messages to Congress and executive
agreements. Administrative orders are found in the standard publications described above, with the
exception of U.S. Code Congressional and Administrative News and Sheoard's. Messages to Congress
are usually printed as Congressional Documents and thus appear in the Congressional Record or may,
if important enough, appear in USCCAN. Executive agreements deal with international affairs and are
treated in the same manner as treaties; they are discussed with treaties, below.
Compilations of Presidential Papers

STATE And LOCAL ADMINISTRATIVE MATERIALS
State administrative materials, like statutes, vary from state to state; In general, state materials echo
federal materials. State agencies are as important in the regulation of the environment as the federal
government. States usually have a health department, labor department, department of environmental
protection or conservation, department of housing or urban development and other facets similar to the
federal bureaucracy.
There are numerous problems with access: most states have administrative codes and registers
similar to the CFR or the federal Register, but some publish neither. Of the ones that do, many are
issued in a looseleaf format that is easily updated. Most states also issue registers, sometimes weekly
or monthly. If nothing Is published, the issuing agency must be contacted. Commercial services such
as BNA Environment Reporter contain information on state regulations concerning the environment;
coverage is for all fifty states. States usually publish 'bluebooks.' which are primarily organizational, but
which provide information about the government, its agencies and functions. A CD-ROM product,
ENFLEX attempts to provide coverage of state and federal environmental regulations and intends to
provide international coverage as well. State Administrative decisions dealing with the environment are
sometimes covered on LEXIS or WESTLAW. State agency decisions may also appear In some topical
reporters or annotated statutes or regulations. Usually, when they can be identified, they may be
obtained from the agency itself.
Municipalities, whether large cities, such as New York City or Chicago, or small towns and villages,
have local rules as well. Depending on the locality, a great deal may be published, or nothing at all.
Indexing and cumulation are often haphazard, if they exist at all. Like municipal ordinances, local
administrative materials must usually be located at the source: the City or Town Hall, usually via the
Town Clerk, or a municipal library, if it exists. Sometimes, such materials are placed on electronic
databases such as LRS (New York State Legislative Retrieval Service), but this is still the exception
rather than the rule. The following are basic guides and directories to tracking down state and local
administrative materials:
a. Fisher, M. L. Guide to State Legislative and Administrative Materials (New York: Rothman, 1988)
b. Hellebust, L. State Legislative Sourcebook (New York: Government Research Service, annual)
c. Nyberg, C. and Boast, C. 'State Administrative Regulations Research,'in Subject Compilations of

Online version available from Login Services, Inc.
k. United States. Library of Congress. Monthly Checklist of State Publications (Washington: Library of
Congress; for sale by Supt. of Docs, monthly)
29
-------
All of the above finding tools are satisfactory to a certain degree: It depends what you are looking for.
The Yellowbook Series are particularly good directories; the Fisher guide is the standard finding tool in
order to determine the availability and sources for codes, administrative regulations, executive orders,
attorney general opinions and the like. The Council of State Governments publications are Invaluable
aids to finding state publications. The Municipal Yearbook offers similar information for local
governments, including legal, political and statistical publications. The Monthly Checklist of State
Publications has been the most complete source since 1910 for reports, studies and periodicals. Ih&
Index to Current Urban Documents, which is available online as well, covers municipalities with a
population of 100,000 or more, counties in which those cities are located, counties with a population of
100,000 or more, state and provincial capitals and at least two cities in each state. It covers annual
reports, budgets, master plans, codes and ordinances, and commission or council proceedings.
Miscellaneous Finding Tools:
1. United States. Office of the Federal Register. The U.S. Government Manual (Washington: Office of the
Federal Register: For Sale by Supt. of Docs., annual)
The official compendium of descriptive data about all three branches of the government; detailed
name and subject lists, and extensive information about agencies.
2. United States. Government Printing Office. The Monthly Catalog of U.S. Government Publications
(Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, for sale by Supt. of Docs., monthly.
The most comprehensive guide and index to federal government publications. Published since 1895,
It is cumulated and indexed by titie, title keyword, and agency.

TREATIES
Treaties and conventions' are formal agreements between sovereign states. Treaties may be bilateral
or multilateral and Article W of the U.S. Constitution states that treaties, like statutes, are binding.
Treaties are initiated, drafted and negotiated by the Executive Branch, but must be approved by the
Senate. Executive Agreements may be similar to treaties, except that they need not be approved by the
Senate.
*
The United States has signed numerous treaties concerning the environment with other nations; In
addition, there are treaties between nations besides the United States dealing with environmental
issues. Researching treaties, whether the United States is a signatory or not, involves locating the
authoritative text of the treaty, determining whether It is in force, exploring Its intent via a study of Its
legislative history and verifying Its current status. Treaties where the United States is not a signatory or
incidents where no treaty is involved will be discussed in INTERNATIONAL LAW, below.
A. Texts
Until 1950, treaties where the U.S. is a signatory appeared in Statutes at Large. In 1950, both treaties
and executive agreements began to be published in a separate chronological series United States
Treaties and Other International Agreements (U.S.T) Prior to their publication in UST. treaties are
published in slip form consecutively numbered, individually paginated pamphlets called Treaties and
Other International Acts Series (TV/AS). Prior to ratification by the Senate, a treaty may also appear in a
series called Senate Treaty Documents which are issued publicly after their release from secrecy, as
are Senate Executive Reports.
1. United States. Office of the Federal Register. United States. Dept. of State. United States Statutes at
Large. (Washington: U.S. G.P.O.: For sale by the Supt. of Docs., U.S. G.P.O., 1789-). SU: GS 4.111:; AE
2.111.
1A. Bevans, C.I. comp. Treaties and Other International Agreements of the United States of America.
1776-1949 (Washington: U.S. Department of State, 13 vols., 1968-75)
While Statutes at Large is the definitive text for treaties prior to 1950, Bevans is the most
comprehensive and well indexed. Statutes contains, in Volume 64, the last to contain treaties, a
complete list of all treaties, arranged by country. Bevans, however, contains indexes by country and
subject.
2. United States. Superintendent of Documents. Treaties and Other International Agreements of the
United States. (Washington: U.S.G.P.O., Supt. of Docs., 1950 -)
UST contains the text of each treaty in the language of each signatory, a noncumulating index by
subject and country in each volume. Publication is nearly a decade behind schedule.
3. United States. Department of State. Treaties and Other International Acts Series. (Washington:
Department of State: For Sale by U.S.G.P.O. 1946 -)
*The terms convention and treaty are identical in meaning and usage;
convention is often used when referring to multilateral treaties.
31
-------
Treaties In slip form, these individual pamphlets also contain the text of treaties in the languages of
the signatories. Publication is nearly five years behind.
4. United States. Department of State. The Department of State Bulletin. (Washington: Department of
State, Bureau of Public Affairs, for sale by Supt. of Docs., U.S.G.P.O. 1939-89)
Considered the 'official,monthly record of U.S. foreign policy" since 1939, this publication was useful
for information on current treaties including negotiations, current status and ratification and
proclamation. During the time it ceased publication and the DISPATCH was inaugurated treaties were
covered at that time by Current Treaty Actions. It had an annual index and a monthly frequency.
5. United States. Department of State. U.S. Department of State Dispatch. (Washington: Department of
State, Bureau of Public Affairs, for sale by Supt. of Docs., U.S.G.P.O. 1990 •)
The Dispatch continues the old Bulletin with Its important update: Treaty Actions. It also provides
the text of the various speeches, ambassadorial appointments, essays, news conferences etc. reported
in the Bulletin. The publication was reborn when it was proved that the information it provided was not
readily available elsewhere. Weekly.
6. American Society of International Law, International Legal Materials (Washington, D.C.: The
Society, 1962-)
Deals with major treaties and sometimes provides the text of a major treaty before it appears in the
official sources. Bimonthly.

c. United States. Congress. United States. The President. United States Code Service (USCS}. (San
Francisco: Lawyer's Cooperative Publishing Inc. 1972-)
The editions of the U.S. Code only contain such treaties as relate to statutory provisions. The
annotated codes provide annotations of relevant decisions.
B. Finding Tools
Because United States treaties are published in chronological arrangements, finding tools providing
subject access are vital, as are aids which provide the currency of existing treaties. Subject
compilations on particular subject have also been published; for example, tax or extradition treaties.
32
-------
1* Annotation*
United States Code Service includes an unnumbered volume which lists treaties and provides
annotations of federal and state court decisions. However, coverage is limited.
2. Cftaton
Sheoard's United States Citations, statute edition can be used to find federal cases, statutes
affecting the treaty, or amendment by a later treaty.
3. Digests
While there are a number of digests which are of historical Interest the following are of more recent
interest.
a. Whiteman, MM ed., United States. Department of State. Digest of International Law (Washington:
U.S.G.P.O.. 15 vote. 1963-73)
b. United States. Department of State. Digest of the United States Practice In International Law

c. 'Contemporary Practice of the United States Relating to International Law" in American Journal of
International Law, now called Proceedings of the Annual Meeting- American Society of International Law
(Washington, D.C.: The Society, annual 1974-)
The earlier work, which is referred to as "Whiteman" covers the period from the 1940's to the 1960's;
after that, the Department of State annua1 volumes cover more recent times. The State volumes, which
are issued several years after the period covered are in turn supplemented by the American Journal of
International Law, which published a quarterly update arranged like the Digest of United States Practice.
4. Electronic Databases
WESTLAW and LEXIS do not contain treaties generally, but do access cases which interpret or are
affected by treaties, as well as U.S. tax treaty information.
5. Glossary
a. Renoux, Y. and Yates, J. Glossary of International Treaties (Amsterdam: Elsevier, 1973)
This glossary contains information on world treaty terms in Dutch, English, French, German, Italian,

INTERNA TIONAL LA W
The United States Is a signatory to many bilateral and multilateral treaties and conventions, but other
nations may enter into treaties without United States involvement. Disputes involving the U.S., or a legal
entity of the U.S. such as a corporation or person may also arise with other nations where no treaty Is
Involved. Moreover, the field of international law encompasses two aspects, public and private
international law. Public international law is concerned with sovereign states as legal entities as well as
the relations between a state and the citizens of another state. Private international law concerns itself
with the rules and practices that determine where, and by whose law, disputes which involve the law of
more than one state are decided, and how foreign judgements are enforced. While negotiation,
diplomatic or otherwise still plays a major role in solving such disputes, it is still possible for lawsuits to
be filed in U.S. federal courts by foreign governments against U.S. corporations accused of
environmental infractions. Suits against the U.S. government are also possible, although questions of
sovereign immunity often arise. The U.S. may also follow its own interests in foreign courts pursuant to
the laws of the nation in question. Generally, however, negotiation and settlement are the preferred
methods of conflict resolution because of the complicated legal questions involved. Cases pursued In
American courts may be researched in the traditional way; other sources of information are listed
below.
TEXT: Treaties of Nations other than the United States
1. Parry, C. ed. Consolidated Treaty Series (New York: Oceana, 1969-86)
This is a 243 volume set which covers treaties from the Thirty Years War in 1648 to 1919. There are
twelve volumes of indexes, but they are merely chronological lists or index to the parties involved: there
is no subject index.
2. League of Nations League of Nations Treaty Series (Geneva: League of Nations, 1920-1946)
Issued by the predecessor to the United Nations, it contains treaties registered between members

3. Jnited Nations. United Nations Treaty Series (Geneva: United Nations, 1946-)
Consisting of over 1,200 volumes of treaties of U.N. members, including some filed by nonmembers,
the treaties appear in their official languages and in English and French. There is a delay in the
35
-------
e
publication of both the treaties and the indexes; and, occasionally, volumes are published out of
sequence.
4. Organization of American States, Organization of American States Treaty Series (Washington, D.C.:
OAS, 1957-date)
Multilateral treaties of-the Western Hemisphere countries, including the U.S. appear In English and

Series/Recueil des Traites. or Recueil des Traites et Accords del la France, for example. Some
countries' treaties are indexed as well: Agreements of the People's Republic of China. An Index of
British Treaties or Canadian Treaty Calendar, to name a few.
Finding Tools
A. Guides and Indexes
1. United Nations Multilateral Treaties Deposited with the Secretary-General (Geneva: United Nations,
1981 - date, annual)
This publication can be compared somewhat to Treaties in Force in that It provides information on the
status of treaties and references to text locations. Each volume is arranged into subject categories,
within which treaties are listed chronologically. This series continues an earlier one: Multilateral
Treaties in Respect of Which the Secretary-General Performs Depository Functions 1968-79.
2. United Nations Statement of Treaties and International Agreements (Geneva: United Nations,
monthly)
This is a monthly supplement to the above work; it provides information on bilateral and multilateral
treaties, but is not comprehensive as it covers member states only and is late, although not as late as
UNTS.
3. Bowman, M.J. and Harris, DJ. Multilateral Treaties: Index and Current Status (London: Butterworths,
1984-)
36
-------
Supplemented annually, this index covers almost 1,000 agreements with summaries of their contents.
4. Rohn, PJ., camp. World Treaty Index. 2d ed (Santa Barbara: ABC-Clio, 5 vols., 1983-4)
Covers treaties from 1900 to 1980, including thousands not in the official series.
B. Environmental Treaties
1. Ruster, B., Simma, B. and Bock, M. eds. International Protection of the Environment: Treaties and
Related Documents (New York: Oceana, 31 vols. 1975-83)
Most comprehensive subject compilation available. Updates are planned.
2. DocTer-lnstitute for Environmental Studies/Milan, European Environmental Yearbook (London:
DocTer International, 1991)
First published only in Europe, this concise and informative book provides information not only on
treaties and conventions, but on the legislation of individual European countries, with special surveys
on Australia and Japan. The work gives brief descriptions of administrative structure in each country
and discusses individual topics such as hazardous waste.
Internationa/ Cases and Arbitration
Just as there are national courts in each of the world's sovereign states, there are international courts.
To locate an action, it must be determined where jurisdiction is likely to lie. Sovereign immunity, which
involves the actions of a state acting in its capacity as such may also arise. Jurisdiction for actions is a
thorny problem, often involving much legal maneuvering in and of Itself. Disputes between sovereign
states, If unresolved by diplomatic negotiation or by mediation can be submitted to courts, arbitral
bodies or special commissions established for that purpose. These decisions are considered valid
primary sources of law and are indications of accepted international practice or sources of treaty
interpretations. While decisions of international courts are binding on the parties in a case, they are not
considered in the same manner as stare decisis.' Once the arena has been decided upon, many
sources are available to track it.
1. International Courts
The International Court of Justice was created by the United Nations in 1945 to replace the Permanent
Court of International Justice, a League of Nations body. The ICJ is the only worldwide tribunal with
jurisdiction extending to all states whether or not they are members of the United Nations in all legal
disputes concerning treaty interpretation, international law or breaches of international obligation.
Cases are reported in advance sheets and in Reports of Judgements. Advisory Opinions and Orders:
records and briefs are made available in Pleadings. Oral Arguments and Documents: and, finally, a
YearBook contains information on organization, jurisdiction, practice, and a discussion of pending
cases, as well as retrospective lists of decisions. Decisions are covered on WESTLAW, as well.
'Article 38 International Court of Justice Statute; Article 59
International Court of Justice Statute
37
-------
7776 publication International Law Reports. (London: Butterworths, 1957-76; Hague: Grotius
Publications, 1978-) is the widest ranging general reporter of international decisions. It contains ICJ
decisions, selected decisions of the European Commission on Human Rights, the Court of Justice of
the European Communities, trie administrative tribunals of International organizations, arbitration, claims
and conciliation commissions and national courts adjudicating international issues. Coverage begins in
1950, but there are various digests of cases going back to 1919. Cases of the ICJ are summarized in
Rovine, A.W. ed., Case Law of the International Court (Hague: Sijthoff, 1952 - date), which contains
decisions arranged by subject. WESTLAW has ICJ reports from 1947.
There are a few subject specialized collections of international court decisions, but none specifically
for the environment. The best source still remains the BNA International Environment Reporter, for
specifically environmental topics.
Disputes settled by arbitration have a long history; international arbitration was standardized by the
creation of the Permanent Court of Arbitration by Hague Peace Conferences of 1899 and 1907. Reports
of such judgements are in Scott, J.B. ed. The Hague Court Reports (London: Oxford University Press,
1916; 2d series, 1932) and continued by the United Nations' Reports of International Arbitral Awards
(1948- date). These reports only include arbitrations between states, and agreements resulting from
international mediation or conciliation; it does not include business or private arbitrations. Some of
these are published in International Council for Commercial Arbitration, Yearbook: Commercial
Arbitration (New York: Kluwer, 1976 - date), which also includes rules and bibliographies.
2. International Organizations
A. The United Nations
The United Nations, in addition to the Reports described above also publishes The Yearbook of the
International Law Commission, a report on efforts to codify certain field of international law; Legislative
Series, compilations of legal documents relating to the legal activities of the U.N., and The Juridical
Yearbook, which contains the texts of treaties as well as an annual bibliography of international
jurisprudence.
The major finding aid for U.N. documents is the monthly index: United Nations, UNDOC: Current
Index. (Geneva: United Nations, 1979 -), which was previously called United Nations Documents Index
(UNDn(1950-73) and UNDEX (1974-78). This contains checklists, indexes by subject, personal and
corporate name, and title; a user's guide and a table of symbols and abbreviations. Annual
cumulations are available in paper and microfiche, but it does not index the subsidiary bodies of the
U.N. such as UNESCO.
B. The European Community
Created in 1955 by the Treaty of Brussels, the EC merged the European Atomic Energy Community,
the European Coal and Steel Community and the European Economic Community. The major legislative
bodies of the EC are the European Parliament, which is an elected body, the Council, which is the
major decision making body, the Commission, which is a permanent executive body which is
responsible for implementing and organizing treaties and managing the 'Common Market", and the
Court of Justice for the European Communities.
Numerous documents are produced; among them are: Official Journal of the European
Communities. Debates of the European Parliament. Working Documents. Monthly Bulletin of the
38
-------
European Communities. General Report on the Activities of the European Community. Review of the
Council's Work, and Directory of the Community Legislation in Force and Other Acts of Community
Institutions. A good source for basic EC treaties and other documents is Simmonds, K.R. Encyclopedia
of European Community Law. (London: Sweet & Maxwell, 12 vols., 1973 -)
Reports of cases may be found in the official Court of Justice of the European Communities,
Reports of Cases before The Court (Brussels: Office for Official Publications of the European
Communities, 1954-date).- Commercial publications include Common Market Reports (New York:
Commerce Clearing House, 5 vol., weekly), which covers all aspects of the EC in the CCH format and
Common Market Law Reports. (London: Sweet & Maxwell, Ltd, 1962-), which reports CJEC decisions.
Digests of CJEC decisions are found in the official Digest of the Case-Law Relating to the
European Community. 1981-date, and the European Law Digest (Wokinaham. Bks: Professional
Publishing, Ltd, 1973-), monthly).
Electronic databases provide coverage of the EC as well:

3. U.S. Courts
U.S. Courts, primarily the Federal Court System, are often the appropriate jurisdiction lor actions
involving legal entities of other nations as well as those of the United Slates. Such cases may be
tracked through the standard legal research materials: federal case reporters, annotations, and
electronic systems. Jurisdiction, as stated above is a difficult question, and it may be necessary to look
in several places for an action.

CONCLUSION:
Official decisions concerned with environmental law may be found in a variety of
arenas:
- Administrative Law Judge Decisions
- Environmental Appeals Board
- United States District Courts
- United States Courts of Appeal
- State Courts
- United States Supreme Court
- Local Governing Boards: Planning Commissions, Zoning Commissions, etc.
- Municipal Courts
- International Tribunals
Since nothing exists in a vacuum, related actions may be found in other types of
courts, such as Bankruptcy, Tax Court or other specialized courts, such as the
OSHRC.
In general, environmental administrative decisions are not systematically reported,
but this situation is improving. Commercial services and electronic databases provide
the most access, but it is hoped that with growing interest in environmental law,
eventually a standardized and comprehensive official reporter, in either paper or
electronic format will evolve.
In truth, many environmental disputes are settled by negotiation, but those that do go
on to litigation in either state or federal courts may be searched by using not only the
specialized reporters, but the standard legal research tools such as reporters, digests
or electronic databases.

SECONDARY SOURCES...
LEG/SLA TIVE HISTORIES
A legislative history is not a narrative interpretation; it is a collection of the documentary records of the
conception, deliberation and passage or rejection of a proposed law or regulation. The reason for
compiling and studying legislative histories is simple: legislative histories provide clues to legislative
intent. A bill may become law, but its provisions may be open to interpretation when disputed. When
offered up for Judicial interpretation, a legislative history may be an important signpost.
While the federal legislative process was intended to be fairly straightforward, tracking the progress of
a bill from introduction to outcome is often complicated by the fact that numerous permutations may
occur as a bill winds its way through that process. The documentary history of a bill often begins
before it is introduced in either house; hearings on a problem may be held long before a bill Is actually
introduced. Or, a presidential recommendation or message may instigate such an introduction, as
might a memorandum from a federal agency. Once introduced, a bill obtains a bill number, is printed
and referred to a committee where it may be passed, amended and passed or die. Hearings are usually
held and, after the bill has been studied, hearings held and amendments made, a committee report is
issued. Bills are debated and may be referred once more to committee; eventually, the bill is voted
upon and, depending on whether it is passed or rejected, sent to the President for signature. He may
then veto the bill; at this point, unless Congress overrides the veto, the bill is dead. The President, in
signing the bill, may convey his interpretation of the bill by signing not only his name, but a statement
as well. All of this, and much more, becomes part of the legislative history.
Environmental law does not differ from any other legislation in the fact that it is considered Important
enough and disputed enough to warrant the study and compilation of environmental histories for major
pieces of legislation. Such standards of legal research as United States Code Congressional and
Administrative News (USCCAN) or Statutes at Large provide legislative histories of major legislation. The
histories are not complete, however, as they lack the text of hearings and other minutiae associated
with the passing of acts. Nor are they comprehensive; not every piece of environmental legislation is
considered important enough to to compile a history of. Some federal and state legislative libraries
make a policy of compiling the history of all bills, whether they are passed or not. However, the major
acts do have compiled histories, the quality of which may vary a great deal. The histories and status of
other acts, or their precursors, bills must be accessed via the finding tools listed below.
Generally, the most up-to-date information on current legislation may be found in Congressional Index
or one of the online bill-tracking services; exhaustive coverage of the last two decades is found in the
CIS/INDEX. Older laws may usually be searched only through the 'History of Bills and Resolutions'
found in the Congressional Record Index.
Unless a legislative history has already been compiled, the work is tedious and often frustrating
because of the amount of sources that must be covered. Several innovations, including the use of CD-
ROM have made inroads on this process, but it still remains a complex task. Even when one has found
reference to the components of the history, i.e. hearings, it is often very difficult to locate the actual full-
text version. The best source, if the document does not appear in one of the sources below, is a
government depository library or legislative library. As a rule, and there are exceptions, depository
libraries collect such materials and by the standards of the depository law, must allow access to them
to the public at large.

Finding Tools:
I. Tracking the Components of a Federal Legislative History
A Print Sources
Commerce Clearing'House, The Congressional Index (New York: Commerce Clearing House
Publishing, Inc. 1937-) This is a commercial looseleaf service consisting of two volumes for each
Congress, which does not provide full-text of the materials It cites, but nonetheless Is the most
comprehensive index of current legislative history. It provides access via subject, sponsor, digests of
each bill, a status table of actions, enactments, vetoes, reorganization plans, treaties and nominations,
voting records of members of Congress, and other valuable information. CCH also publishes a
microfiche services called Public Laws-Legislative Histories on Microfiche in which the documentation
of laws Is sent to subscribers as soon as they are enacted.
Congressional Information Service, CIS/Index (Washington, D.C.: Congressional Information
Service, 1970-) CIS/Index is the most exhaustive index/abstracting service available. It is published in
annual, cumulated volumes and supplemented monthly and quarterly. From 1970-83, It Issued two
volumes: abstract and index. From 1983 on, it has issued a third volume entitled Legislative History.
CIS/Index not only because of its detailed indexing, but because It refers to earlier sessions of
Congress. To accompany Its index and abstracts, CIS provided microfiche of selected documents with
a service called Basic Legislative History Service. CIS/Index is available on DIALOG and in the above-
mentioned CD-ROM format: CIS Congressional Masterfile. CD-ROM coverage is 1789-present.
Congressional Quarterly, Inc. The Congressional Quarterly Weekly Report (Washington, D.C.,
Congressional Quarterly, Inc.) This is one of a series of CO publications, the others being
Congressional Monitor, a daily report and Washington Alert, an online service. While it is not an
exhaustive record of legislative history, It contains useful information about current sessions as well as
background analysis. CO a/so provides the CO Almanac, which cumulates the Weekly Report, CO
Congress and the Nation, published every four years and Congressional Roll Call, which examines key
votes. CQ's Guide to Congress provides exhaustive information about Congress itself.
Information Handling Services offers IHS Legislative Histories Program, which selectively films
important current and retrospective legislation.
Johnson, Nancy P. (comp.) Sources of Compiled Legislative Histories: A Bibliography of
Government Documents. Periodical Articles, and Books (AALL Pub. Ser. No. 14) (Chicago, AALL 19?-)
A looseleaf with periodic updates, it covers selective compilations of legislative histories from the 1st
Congress. Cites to looseleafs, microfiche, and electronic services.
REMAC (McLean, VA) provides the full-text of legislative histories from the 67th Congress on and as
a subscription service. This is culled from the GAO Legislative History collection, one of the most
comprehensive anywhere.
United States. Congress. Congressional Record (Washington, D.C.: U.S.G.P.O.) The Congressional
Record has been the transcript of Senate and House Proceedings for well over one hundred years. Its
fortnightly and final indexes have status tables of bills. At the end of session, a cumulative 'History of
Bills and Resolutions' table is published in the INDEX volume. Unfortunately, the INDEX volume is
several years behind in its publication.

West Publishing Co. U.S. Code Congressional and Administrative News (St. Paul: West Publishing
Co. 1941-) For a quick overview of partial, selective legislative histories, this is a valuable tool. It
reprints some reports and is usually available, even in a small law library. It also has status tables.
In addition to the above, other sources may provide information: legislative calendars, especially
Calendars of the United States House of Representatives, and History of Legislation, which contains a
table 'History of Bills and Resolutions: Numerical Order of Bills and Resolutions Which Have Been
Reported to or Considered by Either or Both House' are useful, as are House and Senate Manuals.
directories such as the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress. 1774-1989 and Official
Congressional Directory. All are sold by the Government Printing Office. Monitor Publishing's
Congressional Yellow Book is updated quarterly and provides excellent directory assistance.
B. Electronic Media
Electronic media, which include online services as well as CD-ROM, can provide a much easier
access point to the over-abundance of legislative material. The following services are provided in
electronic format:
- CIS/Index: Available on DIALOG, CD-ROM (Congressional MasterFile), Batch Access (CIS)
Contains material 1970 - date; CD-ROM product contains material from 1796 - date. The CD,
although expensive, can create complete legislative histories from a popular name or public law
number in virtually minutes.
- Congressional Quarterly Products: Congressional Insight (Agenda), Congressional Monitor (Daily),
CO Bill Tracking, CO Committee Action Votes and Rosters, CO Committee and Floor Schedules, CO
Committee Reports, CO Congressional Documents, CO Governing Magazine, CO INFO, CO Member
Profiles, CO Researcher, CO Roll Call Votes & Analysis, CO Text of Bills, CO Weekly are all available as
part of CO Washington Alert Service. Daily updates.
- Commerce Clearing House Material: Electronic Legislative Search System, a bill tracking services
is available from GE Information Services. It is limited, however, to business and tax bills, and does not
include full text of bills.. Daily updates.
- Congressional Record: updated daily, full-text version, produced by GPO; available on
LEXIS/NEXIS, WESTLAW, LEGI-SLATE or on diskette. 1985 - date.
- Congressional Record Abstracts: weekly update, 1976 - date; available on DIALOG and U.S. Library
of Congress Information System.

-------
an Indexed version oftheCQ Weekly Report and texts of White House, State and Defense Department
briefing. Dally updates.
-S*T
- Legl-Tech: another bill tracking system available^through, Washington On-Une, this is similar to
LEGI-SLATE. Daily Updates.
- LEX1S/NEXIS: LEXIS provides LEGIS, Its Legislation library, compiled federal legislative history of
selected Acts, Congressional Record, State Bill Tracking, State Bill Text, State Advance Legislative
Service Files, CQ's Washington Alert, Bill tracking, via BILLCAST (full-text for the current Congress),
Archives of earlier sessions and other useful materials, both state and federal.
• WESTLAW: Coverage same as LEXIS.
II. State Legislative Histories
If federal sources are over-abundant and confusing, state sources are, by contrast, limited and
confusing. In most states the only source for such documents, if they can be identified, is the state
legislative library. Some states now have computerized services like New York's Legislative Retrieval
Service, LEGI-TECH (NY and California) and Illinois' Legislative Bill Status System. In some states such
as New York, expensive commercial services exist that will customize legislative histories. Some law
firms find it necessary to have customized databases created, such as those offered by Electronic
Legislative Search Service, described above. Two print sources act as clearinghouses of information as
to what is available from whom, Fisher's Guide to State Legislative and Administrative Materials. 4th ed.
mentioned under Administrative Law, above, gives detailed information. Another useful work is
Hellebust, L. State Legislative Sourcebook: A Resource Guide to Legislative Information in the Fifty
States (Washington, D.C.: Government Research Service, 1985).
As mentioned above, LEXIS and WESTLAW give state bill-tracking services as well, but archival
material is difficult to find. Some state statutory compilations offer legislative session services which
include text of laws, but a weak on legislative history references. It may be necessary to track the
history of legislation via official or quasi-official groups such as Judicial groups, law revision
commissions and such, which often publish drafts of legislation and analysis of Intent.

MONOGRAPHS
Monographs form an Important part of secondary law sources. Included among them are texts and
treatises used In law schools as well as guides for the regulated community produced by regulatory
agencies or practitioners. Some, due to their originating source, are given higher marks than others.
Many works have been published in the last two years, and It remains to be seen how valuable they will
become. The following Is a sampling of those now available; those marked with a single asterisk may
be considered to be core publications, useful for any law or environmental library. Those marked with
a double asterisk are considered superior by practitioners or librarians. However, all of the works here
warrant inclusion in a comprehensive library; they all provide much that Is valuable and should be
considered for inclusion in a solid collection.
Some works have been placed in categories which may be open for discussion, but this is not meant
to be the final word on the subject! We have tried to Include as much information as possible, but were
not always able to obtain it Contact publishers for further information.
General reference tools used were: Books in Print. Law Books in Print (print, online & CD-ROM
versions). OCLC. and the collections of New York University Law School, Columbia University Law
School, and the U.S.E.PA. Law Library.
When selecting materials on law, it is important to remember that their currency is what gives them
weight and accuracy. For practitioners or a law library, a looseleaf that is updated annually, or an
annual publication. For quick reference, a 'deskbook' or 'manual' which should be replaced when no
longer up to date can be very useful. Always consider the following points: 1) who will be the main
user of a book (attorney, manager, librarian, general public); 2) how frequently will It be updated (e.g.
weekly, annually, whenever necessary, irregularly); 3) is the information duplicated elsewhere?
AIR RESOURCES
Air resources are amply mentioned in the literature of environmental law. The materials range from
books geared towards attorneys to guidance materials for industry. Quality of both sources varies; legal
and specialty publishers are the most widely respected: Clark Boardman, ELI, Government Institutes
and Executive Enterprises to name a few of the better known.

COMMUNITY RIGHT-TO-KNOW
As public concern over environmental questions grows, these volumes may assist In answering
questions from trie general public and the regulated community, alike. While SARA is addressed in
most general environmental lawbooks, it is of enough interest to warrant As own handbooks. Note
particularly the last title, concerning trade secrets, an ever increasing problem for the regulated
community.

protection became household words. Here are some works which specifically address the legal
aspects of conservation and natural resource law.

ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVISM
Focus on environmental issues took on major proportions as citizens expressed
their concerns In the courts. Most environmental legislation includes provisions for citizen suits, either
against the government, the EPA, manufacturers, utilities or any institution that may be perceived to
negatively affect the environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL MEDIATION & LITIGATION
While many cases do come to court, more are resolved by mediation. Toxic tort trials such as those
concerning Agent Orange, asbestos or the Bhopal chemical incident filled the headlines at one time.
The trend in the literature follows the trend towards negotiated settlements, but litigation is still
common. Note the large Practising Law Institute volumes that are forthcoming concerning litigation,
and the Clark Boardman (Dore) publications which are considered standards.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENTS
The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is an inescapable feature of most planning activities. An EIS
is a required document mandated by NEPA which lists both beneficial and detrimental results of
planned projects. However, despite its importance and ubiquity, few commercial publications
specifically address their compilation or legal aspects. Most works on NEPA cover the EIS process,
some giving very specific instructions, some very broad. Note that the Bregman book is the most
recent one to deal with EISs, but that the gap between it and the others is between ten and fifteen
years.

ENVIRONMENTAL INSURANCE
Insurance, particularly against disasters of an environmental nature Is a relatively new focus of the
literature. Most of the works are directed towards environmental managers, as Insurance law Is a
separate field entirely. The Shepherd's (Zuckerman) publication is a major attempt to address the field
from the attorney's viewpoint. Most of the works below are well thought out: the Government Institutes
and Executive Enterprises books are aimed at the environmental manager, the others at the practitioner.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
It could be said that policy is the impulse behind law or regulation; there are numerous activist or pro-
environment works, as well as a small number of works which advocate less regulation and concern.
Here are a few which discuss the various viewpoints and policy trends as well as suggest avenues for
policy manifestation.

GENERAL ENVIRONMENTAL LAW
Works on general environmental law proliferate the field, with varying success. Before consulting or
purchasing works, it should be decided 1) which audience the book is directed at (attorney, manager,
general public); 2) originating sources (legal scholar, regulatory agency, popular author; 3) how Is it
updated (annual supplement, periodic revisions, etc.). In contrast to the asterisks appearing in the
sections above and below this one, a note appears with those publications that might be considered
'core'. This does not imply that the others are deficient, simply that the works are either better known or
their source is more respected.

INTERNATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL LAW
Not surprisingly, environmental law has become extremely important in the multinational corporate
sphere as well as In relationships between nations. Treaties now deal with environmental Issues,
including every conceivable issue including trade and pollution. The last few years have seen a rash of
volumes produced by such publishers as Oceans and Kluwer, long-established in the international
lawbook publishing field. The Clark Boardman (Lutz) looseleaf is an attempt to address the needs of
the practitioner as opposed to the theoretician.

Pollution control is another area that does not have much in the way of legal materials; more
information can be found in works on toxic materials, hazardous and solid wastes and water resources.

STA TE ENVIRONMENTAL LA W
The following state environmental law books are mostly published by Government Institutes and are
usually clear and comprehensive. Of the others, only a few states have produced comprehensive
works. Selml (State Environmental Law) is a standard and comprehensive look at state law generally.
New York, New Jersey and California seem to have produced the most works concerning environmental
laws and their application. I have asterisked the works dealing with state environmental law generally as
the others are basically of a good, uniform quality. Works dealing with state law on a national basis are
followed by individual state comprehensive manuals In alphabetical order.

SERIALS
In legal literature, a 'serial' is not simply a journal; the term 'serial' may cover a multitude of sources,
the term Indicating an hern which Is Issued periodically on a regular or Irregular basis, or an Item which
Is Issued once and updated on a continuing, regular or Irregular basis. Traditional legal "periodical'
literature may be divided into the following: academic Journals, bar Journals, commercial WP reporters,
newsletters and legal newspapers. As a secondary source of law, their main function is to cite to
primary law and to analyze legal issues, but they can also report cases and provide a current
awareness function by reporting on trends and ideas.
Finding Tools
Indexes
The traditional sources of bibliographic information, WP's. SERIALS DIRECTORY(EBSCO) and other,
newer sources, such as GALE ENVIRONMENTAL SOURCEBOOK will aid in locating tities; for citations
to legal articles appearing In primarily non-legal publications, such sources as PAIS. Newspaper /
Periodical Abstracts. NY Times Index. Magazine Index. Current Contents. National Newspaper Index.
Sociological Abstracts. Social Science Citation Index, or the Reader's Guide as well as the wire
services will provide access to material of interest. Most of these indexes have online equivalents. The
following indexes are specific to materials published in 'legal' periodicals.
1. Current Index to Legal Periodicals (Seattle, WA: Current Index Legal Periodical. 1968 -).
'.his index, published by the University of Washington's Gallagher Law Library, indexes articles too
new to indexed in the Current Law Index or Index to Legal Periodicals. Weekly. Covers nearly
three hundred law reviews. Available on WESTLAW. Also available on diskette.
2. Current Law Index (Foster City, CA: Information Access Co. 1980-). Monthly. Covers over
seven hundred law reviews. Uses Library of Congress subject headings. Subject/author/title
indexes. Book reviews indexed under the both the author and the title. Contains case and statute
tables. Available as part of Legal Resource Index, see below.
3. Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals (Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 1960 -).
Originally published by the University of London's Institute for Advanced Legal Studies, the Index Is
now published by L/C Press under the auspices of the American Association of Law Libraries. It
deals with over 300 publications from outside the U.S., the U.K. and the Commonwealth, but does
include a selection of American or Commonwealth journals. Quarterly, with subject, geographical,
book review, and author indexes.
In addition to Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals, the following will provide access to foreign law
journal articles:
a. Index to Canadian Legal Periodical Literature (Montreal: Index Canadian Legal Periodical
Literature, 1965-). Quarterly. Indexes 55 Canadian law journals and 30 general periodicals and law
reports.
b. Index to Commonwealth Legal Periodicals (Agincourt Ontario: Carswell Legal Publications 7979-).
Monthly.
c. Legal Journals Index (London: Legal Information Resources Ltd. 1986-). Covers over 175 British
Law Journals.
129
-------
Australian and New Zealand Legal Literature Index (NSW, Australia: The Law Book
1973-) Quarterly.
4. fndex to Legal Periodicals (Bronx, NY: H.W. Wilson Co., 1908-). Monthly, except
September, with annual cumulation. Once the only index to legal periodical literature, this finding
tool has changed over the years. It is the only access to articles published earlier than 1980. It has
author/We and subject heading indexes, as well as tables of cases and statutes. A separate
THESAURUS is published that can assist with search strategy. Available online (WILSONLINE,
LEXIS, WESTLAW), CD-ROM (WILSONDISC), diskette and magnetic tape.
5. index to Periodical Articles Related to the Law (Dobbs Ferry, NY: Glanville Publishers, Inc. 1958-).
Geared to the interaction of law and other disciplines: political science, sociology, psychology,
medicine and international relations. Supplements research to non-legal periodical articles related
to law not found in Current Law Index, etc.
6. Legal Resource Index (Foster City, CA: Information Access Company 1980- ). Indexes more than
960 bar journals, law reviews, newspapers as well as almost 1900 related sources of Interest such
as business or general. Available in the following formats: PRINT (Current Law Index, monthly,
cumulated quarterly and annually), CD-ROM (LEGALTRAC, contains the legal, not business or
general materials), Magnetic Tape, ONLINE(BRS, BRS/AfterDark, BRS/Colleague, DIALOG, LEXIS,
WESTLAW).
7. An Index to Legal Periodical Literature (?, 6 vote., 1888-1933) The major access point for articles
which precede tfie Index to Legal Periodicals. Coverage from 1790-1933.
Bibliographies
1. Environmental Periodicals Bibliography (Santa Barbara, CA: Environmental Studies Institute of the
International Academy 1973-) Tables of contents from over 350 periodicals on all facets of the
environment. Published six times a year, with a cumulative annual index, the bibliography covers
over 350 journals concerned with the environment. It covers all legal environmental journals.
Database is available in print, on CD-ROM (EPB: Baltimore: NISC, updated every six months), and
onlinefDIALOG}.
Citators
Cltators provide two important services: one may cite from primary sources to find journal articles
which deal with them, and one can also Shepardize a law review article to find both primary sources
and other articles in which It is cited. Generally, one must look at state Sheoard's for citations in law
reviews to state primary sources as regional citators exclude law reviews. The federal cltators,
Sheoard's United States Citations and Sheoard's Federal Citations are generally limited to the ABA
Journal, but the following specialized publications will be of assistance:
1. Shepard's Federal Law Citations in Selected Law Reviews (Colorado Springs, CO: Shepard's
McGraw-Hill 1974-). Four cumulative supplements per year. Citations in leading journals to the
opinions of the United States Supreme Court.
2. Sheoard's Law Review Citations (Colorado Springs, CO: Shepard's Mcgraw-Hill, 1968-) Bimonthly,
with 3 cumulative supplements and 3 advance sheets a year.

Electronic and Other Non-Print Media
»•«„ .-•.-, (V
Electronic Me&ia such as online services, CD-ROM, diskettes and tape, and'rf&Pfyrint media such as
microfiche are standard today. The online databases, WESTLAW, LEWS-NEWS, DIALOG, VU-TEXT, Dow-
Jones NEWS/RETRIEVAL and the various other competing services all provide access to serials, either
In a full-text format or via bibliographic citation. CD-ROM products tend fo provide citations only, and
an omnibus system such as DIALOG will provide other related subject databases such as PA/S,
MEDLINE, or PSYCHINFO as well as numerous directory-type databases. Due to the volume of
publications, microform has become the preferred storage media for a number of publications,
including bar journals, legal newspapers and the like. Any library which needs to have archival holdings
will probably collect them in microform format. Indexes, while still available in print, are being utilized
more and more via non-print media: online or CD-ROM products.
In terms of full-text coverage of serials, WESTLAW covers myriad publications, including academic
journals, bar journals and subject specific journals. WESTLAW also offers gateway databases, such as
Congressional Quarterly's Washington Alert, DIALOG (both as access to the main database and as
searching capacity in WESTLAW on selected DIALOG databases), Dow Jones News/Retrieval, Dun &
Bradstreet Business Credit Services and VU/TEXT. In contrast, LEXIS/NEX1S offers, in addition to
numerous law journals and indexes, the general-interest NEXIS, which contains over a hundred
newspapers, including NY TIMES. WASHINGTON POST, and LOS ANGELES TIMES, magazines,
newsletters, wire services, trade and business journals. VU/TEXT, available on its own or via WESTLAW,
is similar to NEXIS, except it lacks the NY TIMES. Dow Jones News/Retrieval contains the Wall Street
Journal. Many of the individual periodicals described below are available online, usually in full-text
versions, in one or more of the electronic systems.
Most law firms or law schools subscribe to as many systems as possible, especially as, to remain
competitive, the vendors have enhanced their services. Soon, WESTLAW, anticipates introducing natural
language searching, which may be copied by the others.
/. REPORTERS
Reporters are the backbone of legal research; generally organs of government publish their own,
official reports of decisions which carry the weight of official sanction. However, for environmental law,
there is no one comprehensive source for such decisions. Rulings, decisions, orders and advisory
opinions of agencies with quasi-judicial authority are published in sources other than the Federal
Register and the CFR. Tribunals within the agencies, generally presided over by administrative law
judges, interpret and enforce administrative rules. Decisions rendered in this context are subject to
review by the courts. Unfortunately, environmental cases are not published in a systematic manner;
aside from the following print sources, the two legal databases LEXIS/NEXiS and WESTLAW are the
best sources for decisions. Because they are not 'official' they cannot be considered primary sources,
but, in the absence of other sources, they are often cited. The two omnibus services, Environment
Reporter (BNA) and Environmental Law Reporter (ELI) make an attempt to provide substantive print
coverage, not only of cases and decisions, but of regulations themselves. They also fulfill a current
awareness function with their weekly updates and newsletter-type bulletins.
CHEMICAL REGULATION REPORTER (Washington, D.C.: Bureau of National Affairs, Inc. 1977-)
Weekly reporter on federal chemical regulations; binders cover both notification and reference. Full-text
of relevant acts as well as decisions. Available on WESTLAW (1986-), LEXIS (1982-) and HRIN (1987-)

II. BAR JOURNALS, A CADEMIC LA W REVIEWS and
ENVIRONMENTAL JOURNALS
Bar journals are publications of the various state and national professional organizations; they range
from scholarly to popular in format. Academic law reviews, which are the journals most people identify
as 'legal periodicals' tend to be produced by law schools, either alone or in concert with special
interest groups, and they tend towards scholarly analysis of topics. Because of their association with
legal education, law reviews tend to be among the most respected of secondary sources.
Environmental law journals, produced by a commercial publisher or an interest group, such as the
Sierra Club or the World Wildlife Fund may also be devoted to a singular topic, i.e. environmental
management or land use; depending on authorship, they are also fairly well respected.

If. NEWSLETTERS
Newsletters proliferate in the environmental fields; many deal with legal matters, either wholly or in
part. With a weekly frequency most common, the average newsletter is short and quality may vary wildly.
Some, like the INSIDE EPA or BNA Daily Reports series are considered more valuable than others.
They are secondary sources of a much lower level than either commercial looseleafs or law reviews.
However, they often provide information on trends as well as acting as advance sheets for the reporting
of decisions. Sources for listings are Gale Environmental Sourcebook. Eis, Arlene: Legal Newsletters in
Print. EBSCO's The Serials Directory and s's International Periodicals Directory. The following
newsletters have been selected because they cover legislative or regulatory news in some way; some
of the newsletters only report on such activity incidentally, but most devote the bulk of their Issue to
covering such news. An addition source is the legal newspaper, such as the weekly National Law
Journal, which sometimes devotes entire issues to environmental topics. Most states and large cities
have legal newspapers published frequently, usually daily. New York has the New York Law Journal.
San Francisco, The Recorder, and so on. These newspapers often act mainly as advance sheets for the
reporting of cases, but sometimes have feature articles or columns on environmental law.

ELECTRONIC DA TABASES
Electronic databases, which are becoming widespread, may take the form of online services, CD-ROM
or diskette. Expensive to use, they are, nevertheless, more efficient than print or microfiche sources.
Searching takes only seconds, and the medium lends Itself to current awareness functions. Quality
varies, but most vendors provide sufficient support. LEXIS and WESTLAW may even be cited In court
cases, where no print version exists. The storage capacity Is such mat much more material appears In
LEXIS or WESTLAW, for example, than in printed reporters. In addition, material is available much more
quickly than print sources; some databases are updated on a daily basis, providing almost
Instantaneous access to materials. Searching, particularly In instances where printed Indexes are poor,
is much more efficient, both in speed and comprehensiveness.

APPENDIX 4: LEGAL RESEARCH STRATEGIES
Some Final Thoughts on How-to-do-it and When to Stop.
Legal research strategies, as in any other type of research, demand a critical intelligence. Some
quests are straightforward (i.e. Is 450 F.Supp 1073 still good law? Find the full-text of the ANAA! What
forms are needed to apply for a Hazardous Waste Permit?), but some goals are oblique, If not
downright obscure. For example, If a bank forecloses on a disused factory site later discovered to be a
source of water pollution, who has liability? What happens if the property line crosses into another
county? Another state? If Mexico diverts Its wastewater to the San Diego area, who is responsible for
cleanup or treatment? Mexico? The state of California? The federal government? If someone has a
business In his home which uses toxic substances, what is his responsibility to his neighbors? If an oil
spill is found to be sabotage, who bears the major responsibility? If confidential business Information is
supplied to the EPA pursuant to TSCA and is accidently accessed by or given out to attorneys In a
lawsuit, who may be sued for damages? If two states believe that a third is responsible for major
sources of air pollution, what can they do about It. If a soldier is exposed to.toxic substances by the
enemy, does the U.S. military bear any responsibility? If World War One poison gas canisters are
discovered in what is now a residential area near Arlington, VA, what must the federal government do?
What If they are U.S. Army canisters and the residential area is in Belgium? Most of the situations
described above are true, and most have yet to be settled, either in court or out of it.
As can be seen, none of these problems have easy answers. Most go into negotiation and probably
litigation. However, how is one to provide research/reference assistance when such projects come
one's way? Here are some steps that might be followed with success:
1. Evaluate the problem. Determining what the issue actually is (and this can change as more
research is done) allows the researcher to begin the quest. One can begin by outlining the major
aspects of the problem and proceeding from there. For example, in the bank example above, the
problem revolves around whether the lender, i.e. the bank, is now responsible for cleanup of the site
and for damages to surrounding propert/es.
2. Look at the whole picture; in the example above, one should research the innocent landowner
defense as well as lender liability under CERCLA. But before going into specifics, the researcher
should look at the intent and applications of CERCLA Good sources for information are the general
environmental law studies mentioned in the monograph section; even If they do not specifically address
the issue they will give the context in which those specifics are played out as well as the terms
associated with It.
3. Once the major issue or issues has been identified, a comprehensive search must be made:
A. Cases, using treatises, reporters, digests, encyclopedias, annotated statutes, annotations or
computer sources such as LEXIS/NEXIS and WESTLAW must be searched and read. Searching can by
done by topic, key number, statute or by major case, if known. Obviously, for quick results the
computer has no peer; but, if a thorough grasp of the issues is needed, is often wise to approach the
topic from what Cohen calls 'narrative descriptions'10, such as treatises, which are written by
respected scholars and may be considered persuasive authority. Using as many case-finding sources
as is possible allows for less probability that something may be overlooked.

-------
B. The computer plays a prominent role In legal research today. Firstly, It saves time, secondly It
contains unpublished or unreported materials, and thirdly, it is much more current than the printed
works. However, as Cohen and common sense must point out, the cases must still be read and
evaluated ly the researcher.
4. Cases musf be determined to be 'good law* by shepardizing them, or by using any of the
computerized services to update them. Shepardizing a major case often leads to other fruitful areas of
research as well as confirming a point of law.
5. The researcher must now read and evaluate the results of the search, often summarizing the points
of law discovered.
6. At mis point, this particular research should either end or continue, depending on the following:
A. Have all the relevant authorities been consulted? This includes searching for materials that are
unreported and difficult tc get. If the standard authorities yield nothing, have the alternative authorities
been consulted? For the beginning researcher, it is often wise as Cohen says to consult a law librarian
for sources that you never knew existed.11 Different authorities often handle or index a case
differently, so it is wise to look at various sources, not just WEST reporters.
B. Have all points of law in the problem/issue been addressed? Have all the side issues been
examined as well?
C. Will the cost of pursuing problem outweigh the results?
D. Has a complete shepardizing been done to all relevant cases?
ft is probably impossible to consult everything in existence on a particular topic. If the answer to
the above questions is "yes" then the time has come to conclude the search.
For assistance in legal research the following authorities are standard, well respected, and above
all, practical. Note particularly the Cohen books, which are used by students, researchers, librarians
and lawyers. In addition, the Marke-Sloane book, which is geared towards librarians, provides
excellent, up-to-date material, including a section on environmental law and heavy emphasis on
electronic resources.

Another fine source for information on government documents is Morehead, J. and Fetter, M.
Introduction to United States Government Information Sources. 4th ed. (Englewood, CO: Libraries
Unlimited, Inc. 1992), which is the latest edition of this standard. While not especially informative on the
EPA, this is a comprehensive guide to the maze of government documents.
In conclusion, one may not be able to investigate all sources; that is probably Impossible. Law, while
conservative in nature, is capable of swift changes and inexplicable turns as well as an overabundance
of documentation. However, guides do exist to the basics of legal research and law librarians are
skilled in legal research techniques. For environmental law, particularly the administrative records of
actions, persistence is necessary, but usually rewarded.
