Home / Environmental Law: Pollution Control
This course introduces the basic pollution control statutes, the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act and hazardous waste laws. It examines and contrasts their objectives, their regulatory schemes and their relative successes. Special emphasis is given to comparing and critiquing the major regulatory approaches to pollution control: command and control regulation according to health-based or technology-based standards and economic incentive schemes, as well as statutory interpretation. Professor Babich will invoke the rule penalizing students for lack of preparation and/or excessive absenteeism. (3 Credtis)
