Covering the hottest topics in environmental law, this Update is a reference for lawyers and consultants who confront environmental issues. The first half of the Update examines key federal environmental statutes such as the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and CERCLA. Each key statute is addressed in terms of regulatory developments such as legislation, regulations or policy statements from the Government; enforcement issues such as fines and prosecutions by the government and civil actions by private parties. This statutory overview should be especially helpful to lawyers and consultants who not only need to stay current on the specific areas of environmental law in which they specialise, but who also need a convenient way to review the significant statutory developments outside their areas of concentration. The second half of the Update consists of feature chapters which provide in-depth discussion of environmental topics that are of particular significance in the current environmental arena.

An interdisciplinary discussion that deals with concepts of ecological self-organization which have been developed during the past 10 years. Presents the argument that it is internal self-organizing procedures which may render enterprises sensitive to ecological demands. Three aspects of the problem are confronted: how does legal liability influence self-regulation within the company; are there other complementary legal tactics that correspond better; under what condition can regulation of self-organizations make enterprise more responsive.

Marine pollution causes significant damage to fisheries and other economically productive uses of the ocean. The value of that damage can be quantified by economists, but the meanings of those valuations and how they are derived are often obscure to noneconomists.Economic Losses from Marine Pollution brings a fuller understanding of the variety and extent of marine losses and how they are assessed to scientists, lawyers, and environmentalists by systematically identifying and classifying marine losses and relating them to models and methods of economic valuation. The authors use a step-by-step approach to show how economists have used these methods and how they approach the problem of assessing economic damage.The book begins by describing the importance of economic valuation of marine damages, the history of concern over marine pollution, and the development of economic methodologies to assess damage from it. Following that, the book: considers types of marine pollution and their effects on organisms, ecosystems, and humans, and the corresponding economic effects of those biological impacts introduces the economic principles and methods needed to understand and to assess economic damages expresses losses from water quality impairments in terms of economic value introduces the basic economic techniques that have been developed and used to measure changes in economic value discusses how to apply those economic techniques, and presents a variety of practical examples explores limitations and problems that can arise in such applied work.Economic Losses from Marine Pollution includes all of the relevant economic theory together with specific examples of how that theory has been and can be applied. It offers environmental professionals with little or no background in economics the basic economic tools needed to understand economic valuations of environmental damage, and represents a unique handbook for environmental and marine scientists, lawyers, economists, policy professionals, and anyone interested in issues of marine water quality.
