The Role Of Economic Analysis In Shaping Environmental Policy, Arthur Fraas

The experience of the US in using economic analysis to develop environmental policy is examined.

Checks And Balance: Limitations On The Power Of Congressional Oversight, Steven Shimberg

Law and Contemporary Problems

An examination by Lazarus (1991) of the adversarial effects of congressional oversight on the EPA is erroneous in its premise that congressional oversight is a powerful tool that can make or break the EPA and unduly influence the implementation of federal environmental policy. A review of the seven "disadvantages" of congressional oversight of the EPA cited by Lazarus is presented.

Checks Without Balance: Executive Office Oversight Of The Environmental Protection Agency, Robert V. Percival

Law and Contemporary Problems

The tension between the rule of law and the politics of regulation reflected in oversight by the Executive Office of the President of the EPA.

The Internal Structure Of Epa Rulemaking, Thomas O. Mcgarity Oct 1991

The Internal Structure Of Epa Rulemaking, Thomas O. Mcgarity

Law and Contemporary Problems

The EPA's evolving internal decisionmaking structures as they relate to the agency's primary function of promulgating rules and regulations are examined. As an agency addressing complex scientific, economic and technological issues, the EPA must draw upon many different kinds of expertise and has developed a unique version of "bureaucratic pluralism" as manifested in the "team" model that dominates the EPA's institutional thought process.

The Tragedy Of Distrust In The Implementation Of Federal Environmental Law, Richard J. Lazarus

Law and Contemporary Problems
