The legislature of Washingboard State adopted this statute:

There is hereby created a Power Line Routing Commission (PLRC) which shall have the authority, following public hearing and the development of an environmental and health-impact assessment, to recommend the best the location of new electrical transmis­sion corridors in this state. The Commission's action may be appealed to the PLRC Hearings Board in the state capital, and then to the Superior Court. Otherwise, the decision will be referred to the Governor’s office for consideration.

The PLRC was formed, studied power line routes, did an environ­mental and health assessment and held two public hearings. It determined that a new line should run through Hapless Valley, and that the rear access and freight-loading road leading to the back of Dubious' Used (and New!) Cars (his property) would unacceptably close to the proposed power-line corridor. It notified Dubious that this road would be closed.

He complained to the agency; a spokeswoman came to his business to chat about it. She said, “Well, just build a new access road around the side of your building--it won't cost you much.”

Meanwhile, the residents of Hapless Valley organized Residents Against Transmission Systems (RATS). Concerned about the health effects of living near high-voltage power lines, they threaten suit in Superior Court. They presented no evidence that power lines pose any threat to health.

At the public hearings, residents also complained about the through-transmission of foreign electricity (that is, transmission of electricity not generated or used within the state). They said it was bad enough to have to live near power lines, worse that the electrically coursing overhead was on its way to California. The PLRC issued a regulation banning the through transmission of electricity and mandating that only electricity for use in-state be transmitted through populated areas.

Dubious (a citizen of Washingboard) said to one of his friends in RATS: “Oh, there’s no problem with high-powered electrical transmission lines! Shoot, I was in San Francisco, California, last week and at a little local Health-Supplement Company there I bought these pills for $20: guaranteed to protect against electrical radiation by recalibrating the body’s reducto-electrical pathways. I’m taking one right now!” And he did. Ten minutes later he was sick: throwing up and watering at the eyes, and cramps. The pills were just pepper and caffeine.

1. Dubious doesn't want the back-access road closed. What arguments, if any, can he make to oppose the agency's action here?    

                                 

2. RATS sued in Superior Court to overturn the routing decision, claiming it was “ill-advised”; the better place would along Sullen Valley, two miles south, where there are many fewer houses.

            (a) Do they have standing to sue? Explain.

            (b) Assuming so, would the court agree with them that the agency's decision is "ill-advised" and overturn it? Explain.
