Contents Notes | The EPA interprets Section 108 of the Clean Air Act to mean that the EPA Administrator may not consider implementation costs when setting NAAQS. This comment contains a Mercatus Center Working Paper entitled, "Not Considering Costs in Setting NAAQS: A Costly Mistake," which discusses the economics of the EPA's interpretation of the Clean Air Act and how considering costs could make society better off. |
