Abstract

Part I of this Note examines the background of the LFA conflict, introducing the reader to the parties involved in the litigation, the nature of LFA sonar technology, the applicable statutory laws, and the litigation history. Part II outlines ADR procedures and proposes that ECR mediation would serve as an ideal forum for the LFA dispute. ECR involvement would help protect both aquatic life and national security by empowering the parties to collaboratively find creative solutions to complex problems and reach closure from the unending cycle of litigation.
