Models for Change: Efforts by Four States to Address Environmental Justice

摘要

In October 2001, the Office of environmental Justice at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) asked the National Academy of Public Adminisration (the Academy) to study a selected group of state environmental justice and ifentify opportunities for states to address environmental justice concerns more effectively. This study complements a prior Academy effort that analyzed how environmental justice could be incorporated into EPA's permitting programs for air, waste, and water and contributed to EPA's five-step strategy for integrating environmental justice into its permits.
