This Just In: Ohio Environmental Law Handbook

Amy Burchfield, Access & Faculty Services Librarian amy.burchfield@law.csuohio.edu | October 09, 2008 - 14:52

Although 50-state surveys in environmental law cover the Buckeye State, there are very few resources devoted solely to Ohio environmental law issues. The fifth edition of the Ohio Environmental Law Handbook authored by attorneys at the firm of Porter Wright Morris & Arthur LLP is one these resources. The handbook covers areas such as air and water pollution control, hazardous waste management, site remediation and cleanup, and underground storage tanks. Statutory law, regulations, and caselaw are discussed. From the useful chart on civil and criminal penalties in the appendix, you can learn, for example, that operating a solid waste facility for which a permit has been denied can get you a criminal penalty of up to $10,000 for each day of violation. Yikes!

You can find the Ohio Environmental Law Handbook in the Ohio Room at KFO354.O35 2004.
