Today’s engineering and geoscience student needs to know more than how to design a new or remedial project or facility. Questions of law and ambiguities of terms often occur in contracts for mining, landfills, site reclamation, waste depositories, clean up sites, land leases, operating agreements, joint ventures, and other projects. Work place situations arise where environmental compliance methods are challenged by enforcement agencies. Although the statutes, rules, and regulations may seem to be worded clearly and specifically, there are often questions in application and sometimes varied interpretations. Environmental Law for Engineers and Geoscientists introduces simplified American jurisprudence focusing on the legal system, its courts, terms, phrases, administrative law, and regulation by the agencies that administer environmental law. The book comprehensively covers the “big five” environmental statutes: NEPA, CAA, CWA, CERCLA, and RCRA. With the basic law chapter as a foundation, the book covers the practical applications of environmental law for geo-engineers. It concludes with a chapter on the growing area of expert witnessing and admissible evidence in environmental litigation — an area of law where success or failure increasingly depends on the exacting preparation and presentation of expert scientific evidence. Written by a professional mining and geological engineer and a practicing attorney, Environmental Law for Engineers and Geoscientists prepares students for the numerous environmental regulatory encounters they can expect when dealing with various statutes, laws, regulations, and agency rules that govern, affect, and apply to environmental engineering projects. It provides a working knowledge of how to judge whether or not a project is in compliance with regulations, and how to ensure that it is.

"This dissertation is intended to be the foundation for the subsequent publishing of a text book of instruction in environmental law for engineers, initially to be used in the Geological, Mining and Civil Engineering Departments of the University of Missouri-Rolla. Because the subject matter is so extensive, it cannot be fully covered in one dissertation. Hence, this work can only treat the more important highlights of the subject. For that reason, the student or fledgling engineer is introduced to a general orientation of American jurisprudence with an overview of the legal system, its courts, terms, phrases, administrative law and regulation by the regulatory agencies administering environmental law to projects with which engineers and geoscientists will likely be involved in their professional work. The highlights of environmental subjects are the main areas treated, viz., the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which is the "masterplan" for all ensuing environmental statutes; the two basic statutes for improvement of the quality of the environment, i.e., the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act. These basic law chapters serve as a foundation for the engineer. For specific applicability, the work passes on in Chapter 6 to more practical applications of environmental law for geo-engineers, Water Pollution by Abandoned Mine Sites (Acid Mine Drainage/AMD). CERCLA (the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, a/k/a "Superfund") and SARA (Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986) play a very large part in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 follows with the rapidly increasing and important practical application of environmental law for geoengineers and geoscientists in Expert Witnessing and Admissible Evidence in environmental litigation. The success or failure of environmental litigation increasingly depends on the testimony and preparation of expert evidence. Thus, this dissertation is planned to serve as a basic foundation for an instructional text in environmental law for engineers"--Abstract, leaf iii

This book explores these and many other related subjects. This book will be of great value to expert witnesses in liability suits resulting from flood, erosion, landslide, mudslide, or other types of natural hazard-related damage. It clearly explains the needs of an expert, the relationship of the expert to the client and the attorney, the challenges to face, and the proper orientation as an expert. Through a variety of case studies, the book illustrates investigative techniques, case and data presentation to prove "reasonableness" or "unreasonableness" of conduct and "causation." Adequacy of emergency procedures for evacuation and street closures in an area designed for and designated as a retention basin Necessity of the purchase or condemnation of flood-threatened properties due to partial blockage of a canyon by a previous landslide Widsom of providing qualified and objective engineering and geologic input to the land use planning in environmentally hazardous areas

This treatise is an outgrowth of a series of seminars and tutorials on selected legal aspects of geology that were offered to several generations of undergraduate students at Lawrence University. The offerings were in response to a keen interest in how the law and legal institutions relate to the professional geologist. Much of the student interest was undoubtedly sparked by the legal controversies as sociated with the "environmental movement" that became so active during the 1970s and continues today to look to the law for the resolution of conflicting goals. Other students were interested in the role allocated to law by society in general, or were simply curious about law as a profession. Existing published material did not meet my needs, and I had to rely on "handouts" summarizing legal principles, reported appellate cases, and guest lectures from the county bar association. The more formally prepared course materials were edited by practicing attorneys and scholars in academia who encouraged me to seek a publisher who might make the materials available to a broader audience-an audience that might include not only students of the law but also the professional geologist, geological engineers, planners, policy makers, and attorneys, whether in industry, government, education, or private practice, who want to know more about the relationship between law and geology.
