Interstate and International Provisions of the Current Clean
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Provisions in the existing Clean Air Act (CAA) address both interstate and transboundary pollution; however, the effectiveness of these statutory mechanisms is subject to question. The act also provides affected parties with a means to seek remedy for interstate pollution not adequately regulated by existing control programs. It does not directly provide other nations a means of remedy for transboundary (international) pollution; however, actions taken by the previous administration under the act’s international provision may have created a right to legal recourse. In addition, avenues other than the CAA could potentially be pursued to remedy transboundary pollution.
