Our platform is used in the private and public sectors. From state highways to pipelines to strip malls to restorations.
Kavanaugh‘s concurring opinion was the correct call. Sadly, it wasn’t the majority opinion for the Sacketts winning their case. Uncertainty when it comes to regulation is never good for business. Like it or not, federal regulation is a better model than states when it comes to environmental protection. As for my business, this ruling will create so much additional permitting work that we’ll have to double our engineering staff by next year. Our customers will need the tools to sort through 49 new differing regulatory jurisdictions. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Well, there is not a great deal of ”wetlands” discussion at that gov link. Are you working in some federal or state certified engineer capacity? I just take issue with your unwarranted criticism of the Supreme Court. If Congress wanted to protect every piece of land such as that in the involved case, it should have written the law to do so. Unfortunately, Congress writes laws and then allows bureaucrats to greatly expand the initial intent of the law, usually in a manner that Congress knew a straight forward truthful enactment would be objectionable to constituents. Thank goodness for a Supreme Court that tries to rule on what Congress writes, not what bureaucrats with an agenda seek. |
