Every company or individual generating or handling hazardous wastes must understand today's hazardous waste laws and regulations, as non-compliance with regulatory requirements can mean enormous financial liabilities and costly penalties. Written by an attorney who specializes in US environmental, land use and zoning law, this volume takes the reader through all requirements for both hazardous waste management under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and hazardous waste clean-up under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). It provides a helpful discussion of the full spectrum of liability and compliance issues confronting the regulated community.
