Description

Chevron, U.S.A., Inc. v. NRDC has proven a highly important decision-perhaps the most important in the field of administrative law since Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v. NRDC. In the first three and a half years after its announcement- up to the beginning of 1988 - Chevron was cited by lower federal courts over 600 times. Chevron has been a source of lively debate on my own Court, centering largely on the question whether it applies with full force when the controversy involves a "pure question of statutory construction."
