| Tulane University Law School started its Environmental Law Clinic in 1989 to offer students the real world
experience of representing people who otherwise could not afford to enforce their rights under
state and federal environmental laws. Now the
Clinic is part of a first tier environmental law program and has become Louisiana’s premier public interest
environmental legal services organization. On behalf of their clients, Clinic student and
supervising attorneys litigate environmental “citizen suits” to abate industrial pollution, appeal
permits for environmental pollution or destruction of wetlands, challenge agency regulations that fall
short of legislative mandates, and prod agencies to perform statutory duties
