  • An Artificial Distinction: Addressing Water Quantity Concerns Under the Clean Water Act
    An Artificial Distinction: Addressing water quantity concerns under the Clean Water Act Merritt Frey, River Network, September 2011 “Petitioners also assert…that the Clean Water Act is only concerned with water “quality,” and does not allow the regulation of water “quantity.” This is an artificial distinction.” Justice O’Connor writing for the Supreme Court in 511 U.S. 700(1994) (writing for the majority) Although fish and others who rely on our rivers don’t see the separation, our legal system has long treated water quality and quantity as unrelated concerns. Water quality is regulated by the federal Clean Water Act, while state laws govern water quantity. Aquatic and riparian habitat protection and restoration has been even more removed – when habitat issues are addressed at all, it is through a hodge-podge of statutes, regulations and voluntary programs at the federal, state and local level. Even within our landmark water quality law – the Clean Water Act – biological and physical components of our river systems have received far less attention than traditional chemical pollution issues. Although this is slowly changing, the power of the Act has not truly been brought to bear on issues of quantity or habitat. The goal of the paper is to identify Clean Water Act and related tools that could be better used to drive in-stream flow and habitat restoration and protection efforts. Our research focuses heavily on flow protection and restoration, but touches on habitat issues where appropriate. Our findings focus on several policy areas – including better utilizing bioassessement data, developing and implementing strong water quality standards, applying the states’ 401 water quality certification power more broadly to flow and habitat issues, and expanding creative use of the Total Maximum Daily Load program to better identify and remedy habitat and/or flow- related impairments.

  • Public Values in Water Law: a Case of Substantive Fragmentation?
    This article is published in a peer-reviewed section of the Utrecht Law Review Public Values in Water Law: A Case of Substantive Fragmentation? Monika Ambrus Herman Kasper Gilissen Jasper J.H. van Kempen* 1. Introduction Water is often characterized as a public good for various reasons: it can benefit large numbers of people without diminishing its quality, it is a natural resource, it serves the basic needs of individuals, and is essential for maintaining the ecosystem. The underlying idea behind these reasons is the need to ensure that certain publicly important values, i.e. public values, are respected. Although there is a general idea about what these values might be, it is still unclear what the concrete public water values are and to what extent these are actually incorporated in the various dimensions of water law (economic, environmental and social) and at the different institutional/governance levels (international, regional, sub-regional and domestic). Given these dimensions and levels of governance, water law is therefore often described as horizontally and vertically fragmented. The term ‘fragmentation’ is often associated with negative consequences; the general idea is that diverging approaches would lead to inconsistent, incoherent and ineffective results as well as to legal uncertainty. These negative connotations then raise the question whether institutional fragmentation negatively affects the protection of public values. Against this background, the following research question will be addressed in this article: Is there substantive fragmentation regarding the protection of public water values across different institutional levels, and to what extent? Hence, the main purpose of this article is twofold: (1) to provide a working definition of and a theoretical framework for the identification of public values; and (2) to explore which public values are being protected at the different levels and across two main dimensions.
