concerns of individuals by presenting the basic fundamentals of
many environmental regulatory topics. Featuring an overview of the
history of environmental problems, the current regulatory
framework, and problems/solutions of practical problems in the
field, this handbook comprehensively brings the potential
calculations and information on regulations into one single-source
reference.
