A Risk/Cost Framework For Logistics Policy Evaluation: Hazardous Waste Management, Kimberly Hollister
Department of Information Management and Business Analytics Faculty Scholarship and Creative Works
The management of hazardous waste disposal operations is extremely complex involving a multitude of environmental, engineering, economic, social and political concerns.

The model also explains why actors care so much about soft, that is, non-binding international environmental law, such as international …
