EPA is proposing to approve a request from Illinois to redesignate the Illinois portion of the St. Louis, MO-IL nonattainment area, ``the St. Louis area,'' to attainment for the 1997 8-hour ozone standard because the request meets the statutory requirements for redesignation under the Clean Air Act (CAA). The St. Louis area includes Jersey, Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair Counties in Illinois and St. Louis City and Franklin, Jefferson, St. Charles and St. Louis Counties in Missouri. The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) submitted this request on May 26, 2010 and supplemented it on September 16, 2011. (EPA will address the Missouri portion of the St. Louis area in a separate rulemaking action.) This proposed approval also involves several related actions. EPA is proposing to...

You can't tell the players without a program. Here are some of the people who have spent some of the last 12 years preparing for what is expected to be the longest-running trial in the city of St. Louis. The plaintiffs --37 hospitals -- want to recoup from tobacco companies the money spent caring for patients with smoking-related illnesses and complications caused by smoking.
The attorneys involved in the case come from seven states -- including faraway California and next-door neighbor Illinois. Of course, we didn't forget the home-state crew.

ST. LOUIS - Pushed to the brink, the St. Louis Cardinals saved themselves. A frantic rush to reach the postseason on the final day. A nifty pair of comebacks in the playoffs. Two desperate rallies in Game 6.
Turns out these Cardinals were merely gearing up for a gigantic celebration.

ST. LOUIS -- The French who founded this city in 1764 left instructions for having a good time. The Germans brought the beer, built the brick mansions and got things organized. Henry Shaw, inspired by the gardens of his native England, created a magnificent botanical garden. The Italians gave us The Hill neighborhood of tidy working-class homes and terrific restaurants, bakeries and specialty food shops.
Waves of immigrants who followed -- and keep coming -- have left their own cultural and epicurean footprints, most notably along South Grand Boulevard, where they transformed a dying urban neighborhood in the 1970s into a vibrant restaurant destination of Vietnamese, Persian, Afghan and Ethiopian cuisine.

EPA is proposing to determine, pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA), that the bi-state St. Louis, Missouri-Illinois, fine particulate (PM) nonattainment area (hereafter referred to as ``the St. Louis area'' or ``the area'') has attained the 1997 annual PM national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) by its applicable attainment date of April 5, 2010. This proposed determination is based on quality-assured and certified monitoring data for the 2007-2009 monitoring period. Based on this data, EPA previously determined on May 23, 2011, that the area attained the 1997 standards, and EPA suspended certain planning requirements for the area based on that determination. EPA is now proposing to find that the St. Louis area attained the 1997 annual PM NAAQS by its applicable attainment date. EP...

Just over a decade after Louis Dembitz Brandeis co-wrote "The Right to Privacy," which criticized nineteenth-century newspaper journalists' intrusive practices, the attorney sent articles and research to numerous muckraking journalists. On one level, his involvement with investigative journalists seemingly contradicts that article's seminal call for judges to sanction gossip-seeking journalists. His correspondence with friends and journalists, however, suggests he was scolding the readers and publishers of keyhole journalists for failing to comprehend the moral duty of publicity. Those letters also indicate he supported muckraking journalism that exemplified his vision for the moral duty of the American press. He recruited journalists to join his campaigns that used publicity to protect...
