Summary: | This pragmatic guide through the morass of regulations and issues affecting solid waste management starts by stating the rules of the game--laws, regulations, and guidelines under the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Pollution Prevention Act, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, and Clean Air Act, and trends in state regulation--and goes on to discuss industrial and municipal waste recycling policies and issues, pollution prevention and hazardous waste reduction requirements, incentives, disposal technologies, and siting issues.
