SFChron -- New pollution rules overpower California / U.S. laws jeopardize state's air standards
New air pollution regulations issued by the Bush administration undermine an important tenet of national environmental laws: the rights of states to adopt stricter controls than the federal government, environmental lawyers and California officials say.
Environmental lawyers say the new regulations open the door to restrict states on a host of major environmental laws, including the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act,
I have been seeing a campaign by the usual suspects that the new regulations are actually an improvement and only "loony environmentalists" oppose them.
