Independent axiom systems for nearlattices

A nearlattice is a join semilattice such that every principal filter is a lattice with respect to the induced order. Hickman and later Chajda et al independently showed that nearlattices can be treated as varieties of algebras with a ternary operation satisfying certain axioms. Our main result is that the variety of nearlattices is 2-based, and we exhibit an explicit axiom system of two independent identities. We also show that the original axiom systems of Hickman and of Chajda et al are, respectively, dependent.Comment: 16 pages in 12pt; v2: minor changes suggested by referee, to appear in Czechoslovak Math.

Evaluation of Recovery in a Polluted Creek After Installation of New Sewage Treatment Procedures

Response of Hickman Creek near Lexington, Kentucky to alleviation from serious sewage pollution was studied from January, 1973 through July, 1974. Wastes are now handled from an efficient secondary treatment facility and four sequential polishing lagoons before chlorination and discharge to West Hickman branch. Physico-chemical tests gave no strong indication of residual pollution effects at the start of the study, approximately six months after the treatment facility opened. At low flow a slight oxygen sag, probably associated with algal growth in the lagoons, persists downstream from the outfall. Mean values for turbidity, nitrates and COD are somewhat higher at the outfall than at eleven stations within the basin. Orthophosphates are considerably higher in lagoon discharge than elsewhere in the system, which gains some phosphate from bedrock. While the lagoons place some oxygen demand on West Hickman in the form of unicellular algal growth, they can and do receive surges of input that cannot be accomodated in the treatment plant. They would serve as a buffer to the stream in case of operational malfunction, which could overwhelm the small stream at low flow. The lagoons provide some benefits of tertiary treatment. The diversity of benthic macroinvertebrates increased at most stations formerly affected by pollution but did not achieve the levels of two control stations on East Hickman Creek. Fishes reinvaded West Hickman more rapidly than did invertebrates but they also failed to achieve the diversity maintained at the control stations and observed in collections from 1960. Fecal and total coliforms 2 miles downstream from the lagoon outfall were as low or lower than elsewhere in the basin. Changes within the basin were sometimes more clearly seen when stations were grouped by stream order. Urbanization of West Hickman may be causing physico-chemical and biological changes apart from the effects of or alleviation from sewage pollution. The West Hickman Sewage Treatment Plant affords protection to Hickman Creek and produces a safe effluent that has allowed reestablishment of a variety of fishes, invertebrates and aesthetic qualities formerly associated with the stream. Presence of uncontaminated tributaries is thought to have sped observed recovery

The Uncertain Foundation of Work Product

Work product is heavily litigated, extensively studied, and sorely misunderstood. Most blissfully accept it as a combination of codified rules and the seminal case of Hickman v. Taylor. This view settles for a superficial understanding that neither recognizes nor questions underlining assumptions. The codified rules are legislative mandates, Hickman is Supreme Court common law, and they define the doctrine differently. To understand its proper scope of work product, we must know the basis of Hickman v. Taylor, whether it can coexist with codified rules, and what happens when they conflict. This Article takes the novel view that work product is not one doctrine, but two. One branch consists of rules and statutes. The other branch is Hickman and its progeny. This Article concludes Hickman is the product of a well-recognized, if profoundly mysterious, strain in federal jurisprudence known as the inherent powers of courts. Even after the later adoption of codified work product rules, the Hickman branch survives but only in piecemeal fashion. When these branches conflict, the separation of powers requires that the rules and statutes preempt Hickman. To defend this claim, this Article takes us on a journey through the unexplored and striking origins of work product. From its unusual birth, to how courts struggled to make sense of it, to failed drafting attempts, an undercurrent emerges: there is an ongoing struggle between federal courts’ power to step in without any guidance to protect a policy of intrinsic importance to the justice system, and the need for deference to rules and statutes with a democratic pedigree. Ultimately, the near plenary power of the legislature to control federal courts resolves the conflict. This Article concludes Hickman is good law but is not absolute, Congress has more control over the attorney-client relationship than previously thought, and more material is discoverable than most attorneys or courts recognize
