| Title: | United Haulers Ass'n, Inc. v. Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Mgmt. Auth. |
| Date: | 04/30/07 |
| Case Number: | 05–1345 |
| Summary: | In a suit brought by a trade association and individual haulers under 42 U.S.C. section 1983 alleging that certain counties' flow control ordinances involving solid waste disposal violated the Commerce Clause, the ordinances are upheld as, while the ordinances benefit a clearly public facility, they treat in-state private business interests exactly the same as out-of-state ones, and thus do not "discriminate against interstate commerce" for purposes of the dormant Commerce Clause. |
