Abstract |
The study examines existing EPA statutory and regulatory authority which involve land use requirements or implications. There is a direct relationship between land use control measures and environmental impacts. Many pollution problems can be prevented by implementing land use controls with proper consideration of environmental impact. The study is designed to highlight issues which confront EPA regulatory efforts. It includes an analysis of land use impact of programs implemented under the Clean Air Act, the Marine Protection Research and Sanctuaries Act, the Noise Control Act, and the Solid Waste Disposal Act. Those authorities are set forth in the context of influence on land use making process. The discussion emphasizes state and local responsibility. The study concludes with a section on existing methods to coordinate agency programs having significant implication for land use decisions including NEPA, the A-95 clearinghouse process, and the IGA program (Integrated Grants Administration). |
