Book Description
The authorities and responsibilities of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) derive primarily from a dozen major environmental statutes. This book provides a concise summary of one of those statutes, the Clean Air Act. It provides a brief history of federal involvement in air quality regulation and of the provisions added by legislation in 1970, 1977 and 1990. It also explains major authorities contained in the Act as well as key terms and references for more detailed information on the Act and its implementation.
The Benefits of Spatially Differentiated Regulation

Book Description
Location is a crucial driver of both the marginal abatement and damage costs of sulfur dioxide emissions by U.S. coal-fired power plants. Before the start of the Acid Rain Program in 1995, old boilers were subject to emission rate standards set by individual states. We investigate how individual states adjusted their sulfur regulation laws in response to acid rain, and whether they accounted for differences in marginal abatement costs, vulnerability to agricultural damages, special industry interests, or inter-state externalities. The welfare gain compared to a uniform reduction in emission rate standards is estimated to be $21 million (in 1995 dollars) annually.
Acid Rain Control

ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
Thirteen pieces of federal legislation that require sulfur emission reductions by power plants and other coal-burning facilities are currently pending. This book is drawn from the first conference to address the issue of what the costs of compliance with this legislation will be, with a special emphasis on the Midwest region. A major coal-producing area, the Midwest economy will suffer significantly in terms of goods and services produced with electricity and in jobs lost. The participants represent utility, coal, and transportation industries, as well as academia, environmentalists, state and federal regulatory agencies, and the United Mine Workers of America. The critical issues they address include economic modeling and forecasting the results of acid rain legislation, the effects on transportation, air pollution control and the environment, state and federal regulations, and a search for solutions.
