United States v. Riverside Bayview 474 U.S. 121 (1985) was a United States Supreme Court case challenging the scope of federal regulatory powers over waterways as pertaining to the definition of waters of the United States as written in the Clean Water Act of 1972. The Court ruled unanimously that the government does have the power to control intrastate wetlands as waters of the United States. This ruling was effectively revised with the 2006 Rapanos v.
