Exercise One: Outlining Authorities

This year, the environmental protection agency has taken a bold stance on factory emissions. In recent months, a temporary worker at your company complied the following random notes on the topic within a word document titled "EPA $2015".$

In Februray $2015,$ the environmental protection agency proposed regulations that newly interpreted the federal clean air act of $1990..$ Three pro$-$business groups have filed lawsuits over the measures.. The rules would require all industrial plants to reduce the amount of mercury and other emissions. New York, New Mexico, Utah and Oklahoma support the EPA$$s plan... Numerous States oppose the regulations, compliance with which would cost $$untold millions$$ according to one Senator... Section $111$ of the $1990$ Act empowers the EPA to regulate air pollution from any $$stationary source$...$ The move was designed to lessen climate change. Michigan, California, Florida and Pennsylvania oppose the EPA$$s $2015$plan. Section $112$ of the Act $($National Air Standards for Hazardous Pollutants$)$empowers the EPA to regulate over $100$ emissions, regardless of source. A noted Harvard professor has written a Washington Post editorial calling the EPA plan $$an extraordinarily unconstitutional piece of administrative rulemaking$.$ Lawsuits against the EPA normally center on final regulations. The regulations would require a $30\%$ decrease in covered emissions. The two Act sections have never been cross$-$referenced, or reconciled. The EPA proposal does not address section $112$ or tungsten gas.

Your public company employer operates plants that may emit a modest amount of tungsten gas, which indisputably originates from a stationary source. The press has been calling to learn your company$$s official position on the controversy. Accordingly, the CEO of your company plans to seek a vote from the Board at the quarterly meeting next week. In a well organized background memo taking the form of a sole page of $$bullets$,$ briefly explain the dispute and the relevant authorities to the CEO. Be sure to reveal the authorities in the order of their importance. Write short sentences.

Even the most organized delivery of information can still frustrate the reader if the overall message in that of a layman. Simply put, the next task ensures that you have fug deep enough, and that you have dug deep enough, and that you have added value of a legal nature to the problem at hand. In the following exercise, organize the varied thoughts into a lawyealy rule.
