| Course
Description: The course covers three federal statutes
and their associated regulations and case law: the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA
or Superfund), the Resources Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA),
and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRTKA).
In addition, the Hawai‘i counterparts to these laws are
examined. The course covers not only "black letter"
law, but also the policies behind the laws and the impacts these
laws have had on communities, individuals, and businesses. |
