1992The Supreme Court has repeatedly admonished that " 'the constitutionality of statutes ought not be decided except in an actual factual setting that makes such a decision necessary.’ ” (Keystone Bituminous Coal Assn. v DeBenedictis, 480 US 470, 494 , quoting Hodel v Virginia Surface Min. & Reclamation Assn., 452 US 264, 294-295 .) A statute is presumed to be constitutional.

1989Statutes undergoing constitutional challenge as facially invalid in a takings context enjoy even greater deference because there is "an important distinction between a claim that the mere enactment of a statute constitutes a taking and a claim that the particular impact of government action on a specific piece of property requires the payment of just compensation” (Keystone Bituminous Coal Assn. v DeBenedictis, 480 US 470, 494 ).
