RCRA, CERCLA, NEPA, CEQA, SARA, and ISO 14000--what do they all mean? And how do they affect us? Understanding them can be of vital importance to environmental managers, government regulators, planners, environmental consultants, elected officials, and citizen activists alike. This course provides a basic overview of the major federal and California environmental regulatory requirements. Specific regulations pertaining to air quality, water quality, toxic materials, and hazardous wastes (among others) are discussed. Significant emphasis is given to the key elements of the regulatory programs from a compliance perspective. Price includes course notes.
