The petition of the day is:
13-815
Issue: Whether the Federal Power Act (FPA) preempts petitioners’ property damage tort and takings claims caused by the operation of the licensee of a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission licensed dam project, where the provisions of the FPA have explicitly saved and reserved such claims to the property owners.
