Some members of Congress have expressed concern about recent environmental regulations and administrative initiatives. Criticism from lawmakers and industry leaders is primarily focused on environmental regulations promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Some claim that EPA is overreaching its regulatory authority in several environmental arenas. The agriculture community has been vocal with its concerns, contending that EPA appears to be focusing its regulatory efforts on agriculture. Environmentalists, on the other hand, are encouraged by some of EPAs regulatory efforts, claiming that some agriculture operations do pose a public health and environmental risk and should be regulated. This book examines select environmental regulations that could affect agriculture.
