*CITY OF WEST CHICAGO, ILLINOIS v. UNITED STATES NUCLEAR
REGULATORY COMMISSION................................................................... 81
|
7th Cir. 1983 – NRC allowed the co. to
demolish a bldg from a contaminated site and the city was getting a free
landfill at the site.
Agencies
are given deference in determining whether they do rulemaking or adjudication
or how.
In
the absence of the magic words “on the record,” Congress must clearly indicate
intent to trigger formal rulemaking.
Even though it was in some ways
dealing with one landfill, it was an amendment process for how to get onsite
permits, which was what the fight was about.
