Abstract |
The volume contains selected legal opinions of the General Counsel of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Washington, D.C. These legal opinions have been selected for publication as having general applicability and continuing interest to EPA, State and local governments, or the private sector. These legal opinions are for the period January 31, 1980, through June 7, 1985. Although these legal opinions are only a small portion of the opinions rendered by the Office of General Counsel, they cover all the major EPA program areas authorized by Federal statutes. Each legal opinion was issued in response to a request for an opinion. It was based on the Federal statute and regulations that were in effect at the time and may have been based upon a particular and unique set of facts. |
