The authors purpose is to provide a reference tool for all states involved in the set-up and implementation of such legislation, as well as for any other interested parties.

The pieces of legislation included in the volume have as their main feature provisions that establish a pollution prevention agency and activities or a facility planning structure. The acts emphasize source reduction as the preferred method of pollution prevention.
