英文摘要 | The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) launched a new era in environmental protection. New provisions created the innovative Acid Rain Program to curtail acid-rain-causing emissions from the electric power sector through an allowance trading program. Success implementing this new type of program led to its expanded use to achieve additional power plant emission reductions in support of the CAAA “Good Neighbor” requirements. As a result, air pollution and its environmental effects have decreased dramatically in the last 30 years. Implementation of power plant regulations under the acid rain and Good Neighbor provisions of the CAAA provides insights into the efficacy of legislative versus regulatory policy and holds valuable lessons for future environmental policy. © 2020 |
