Environmental Regulatory Law

Environmental Regulatory Law, within Administrative Law, involves rules and regulations created by government agencies to protect the environment. These laws govern how industries must operate to limit pollution, conserve resources, and safeguard public health. Agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) develop and enforce these regulations, ensuring compliance through permits, monitoring, and penalties. This legal framework aims to balance economic growth and environmental protection, promoting sustainable practices while holding entities accountable for their impact on the environment.
