Justice Ginsburg delivered the opinion of the court, which Justices Rehnquist, Stevens, O'Connor, Kennedy, Souter, and Breyer joined. Justices Scalia and Thomas dissented. In 1986, Laidlaw Environmental Services Inc. bought ahazardous-waste incinerator facility in Roebuck, S.C. The facility included a wastewater treat- ment plant. The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DREG) granted Laidlaw a permit authorizing the company to dis- charge treated water into the North Tyger River. The permit limited the discharge of mercury, an extremely toxic pollutant. It also regulated the flow, temperature, toxicity, and pH of the treated water. Finally, it imposed monitoring and reporting obligations. After receiving its permit, Laidlaw repeatedly exceeded the permit's limita- tions. Despite several attempts to fix the situation, Laidlaw exceeded the permit's mercury limitations 4$9 times between 1987 and 1995. In 1992, Friends of the Earth (FOE) and Citizens Local Environmental Action Network Inc. (CLEAN) sent a letter to Laidlaw notifying it of their intention to sue. Laidlaw's attorney then contacted DHEC and asked if DHEC would con- sider suing Laidlaw, because a DHEC lawsuit would bar the proposed citizen suit. DHEC agreed to sue. Laidlaw's attorney Bien drafted a complaint and paid the filing fee. Shortly thereafter, DHEC and Laidlaw reached asettle- mentrequiring Laidlaw to pay $ l OQ,000 and attempt to comply with the permit obligations. FOE sued Laidlaw, alleging noncompliance with the pernut. Laidlaw asked the court for judgment without a trial, arguing FOE could not show it had been injured and had na standing to sue. 57820507 Page 2 -Special Report Supreme Court Decision The court awarded judgment to FOE, fmding FOE had standing "by the very slimmest of margins." The court also ruled FOE's lawsuit was not blocked by the DHEC lawsuit, since the DHEC lawsuit was not diligently prosecuted. Fi- nally, the court assessed a civil penalty of $405,800. " ~A] threat has no deterrent value unless it is credible that it will be carried out.., land] it is reasonable for Congress to conclude that an actual award of civil penalties does in fact bring with it a significant quantum of deterrence over. and above what is achieved by the mere prospect of such penalties. Awould-be polluter may or may not be dissuaded by the existence o, f a remedy on the books; but a defendant once hit in its pocketbook will surely think twice be, fore polluting again." Laidlaw appealed. The court of appeals reversed and dismissed FOE's lawsuit because "the only remedy cur- rently available to [FOE] -~--civil penalties payable to the government -would not redress any injury [FOE had] suffered." The case was then heard by the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court found FOE's lawsuit was similar to other environmental cases where there was evidence of injury if the person suing used the affected area and the aesthetic and recreational values of the area would be lessened by the polluter's activity. For example, the desire to use or observe an animal species, even for purely aesthetic purposes, was undeniably an interest for the purposes of standing. However, Laidlaw argued even if FOE had standing to stop the permit violations, it could not seek civil mon- etary penalties because these penalties could only be paid to the federal government. Congress stated civil penalties in Clean Water Act cases do more than force immediate compliance by making it expensive to pollute, they deter future violations. When imposing civil penalties, courts should consider retribu- tion and deterrence, as well as restitution. To those injured or threatened by pollution, civil penal- ties abate and prevent its reoccurrence. To the extent civil penalties encourage polluters to discontinue viola- tions and avoid comtnitting new ones, they redress citi- zens who were injured as a consequence of the polluter's conduct. The court said, "A would-be polluter may or may not be dissuaded by the existence of a remedy on the Honks, but a [polluter] once hit in its pocketbook will The Supreme Court found FOE presented evidence surely think twice before polluting again." showing it was injured by Laidlaw's violations. For ex- ample, aFOE member stated he Iived a half-mile from the facility and occasionally drove over the North Tyger river. He claimed it looked and smelled polluted, and al- though he-would Iike to fish, camp, swim, and picnic in the area three to 15 miles downstream of the facility, he would not do so because he was concerned the river was polluted by Laidlaw's discharges. Additionally, several other FOE and CLEAN members testified pollution con- cerns kept them from using the area downstream of the facility. Finally, some members claimed property values were depressed by the facility's pollution. The civil penalties sought by FOE carried with them a deterrent effect that made it IikeIy, as opposed to merely possible, the penalties would redress FOE's injuries by stopping current violations and preventing future ones. Consequently, FOE had standing to sue and could seek monetary damages, even if those damages were only payable to the federal government. Citation: Friends of the Earth Incorporated v.
