On April 23, 2020, the United States Supreme Court issued a significant decision regarding when National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits are needed for “point source” discharges under the Clean Water Act. The Clean Water Act forbids “any addition” of any pollutant from “any point source” to “navigable waters” without an appropriate permit from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).The Supreme Court's decision stemmed from a citizens' lawsuit filed by several environmental groups against the County of Maui, Hawaii. Maui operates a wastewater reclamation facility that collects sewage from the surrounding area, partially treats it, and pumps the treated water through four wells hundreds of feet underground. This effluent, which amounts to about four million gallons a day, then travels approximately one-half mile through groundwater to the Pacific Ocean. The environmental groups claimed that Maui has been discharging a pollutant to “navigable waters,” namely, the Pacific Ocean, without an NPDES permit required by the Clean Water Act.

Download Pesticide Use and Water Quality: Are the Laws Complementary or in Conflict? Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This report provides background on the emerging conflict over interpretation and implementation of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA). For the more than 30 years since they were enacted, there has been little apparent conflict between them. But their relationship has recently been challenged in several arenas, including the federal courts and regulatory proceedings of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In this report, a brief discussion of the two laws is followed by a review of the major litigation of interest. EPAs efforts to clarify its policy in this area, including a regulation issued in November 2006, are discussed, as well as possible options for EPA and Congress to address the issues further.
