Editors' Summary: The Burger Court, in its final Term, issued seven major decisions on environmental law. These opinions construed provisions of the Clean Air Act, the FWPCA, CERCLA, and the Bankruptcy Code. The opinions also involve the availability of attorneys fees under environmental statutes, the investigatory power of agencies that enforce environmental law, and the future of two species of wildlife. The author reviews these decisions and notes the further development of patterns established by the Court in recent years. The author also reviews the cases scheduled to be heard this Term by the Rehnquist court and discusses the possible impact of Justice Scalia on the Court's ideological balance.
