Description

This is our second look at a controversy surrounding a housing project undertaken by a private developer with assistance from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The facts of the case are to be found in Silva v. Romney, 473 F.2d 287 (1st Cir. 1973). See also 342 F. Supp. 783 (D. Mass. 1972). Appellants, owners of land abutting the proposed Forest Glen Project in Stoughton, Massachusetts, argue that the district court wrongly dissolved the injunction against HUD and the developer because it erroneously found that the environmental impact statement (EIS) submitted by HUD complied fully with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. § 4332(2)(C). While we agree with the district court that determining good faith compliance with § 4332(2) (C) should not be a vehicle for a court to "interject itself within the area of discretion of the executive", Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. v. Morton, 148 U.S. App. D.C. 5, 458 F.2d 827, 838 (1972), we have concluded that the EIS in this case was insufficient on its face measured by the restrained but not meaningless applicable judicial review standards.
