Environmental laws and regulations are extremely complex and difficult to understand. In order to comply with them, they need to be explained in layperson's terms. This handbook identifies many changes in regulations and recommends ways to apply and implement them. Containing the latest environmental information, this volume addresses environmental compliance with water and provides a historical perspective to help follow the logical growth and increased complexity of water regulations through time. Structured as a "step-by-step how-to" book, readers will find real-life examples for the most important aspects of language, permit terms, demonstrating compliance, and organization for water projects.

Features:

• Identifies all water pollution control regulations and the requirements of any water pollution control permits available up to date
• Answers in depth all practical questions that arise when working on compliance projects in a "how-to" method
• Addresses a wider spectrum of issues that go beyond chemical-based contamination and environmental regulations and examines the impacts of climate change
• Includes many real-life examples and case studies from industry and institutions that comply with water quality regulations
• It is global in coverage and very useful to companies that have expanded operations outside their country of origin
