Excerpt from Implementation of the Acid Rain Provisions of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Clean Air and Nuclear Regulation of the Committee on Environment and Public Works, United States Senate; One Hundred Third Congress, First Session; October 21, 1993

The subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 9:30 a.m. in room 406, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Joseph I. Lieberman [chairman of the subcommittee] presiding.

Present: Senators Lieberman, Simpson, and Baucus.

Opening Statement Of Hon. Joseph I. Lieberman, U.S. Senator From The State Of Connecticut

Senator Lieberman. Good morning and welcome to the hearing.

We have an outstanding group of witnesses here today, and I am grateful that they could join us.

Today, as part of the committee's overall oversight work, this subcommittee is going to examine implementation of the acid rain provisions of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990.

These provisions are probably the most innovative approach to controlling pollution in the history of environmental protection. I think these are very innovative approaches. Their development broke a log jam of 10 years on this question, and allowed us to go forward with the 1990 amendments. They provide for a guaranteed level of environmental protection, but, at the same time, are designed to reduce costs and allow for maximum flexibility and innovation by the regulated industry.

But putting these provisions into effect is no easy task, and today we're going to hear from various players involved in this effort. The largest initial responsibilities were given to the Environmental Protection Agency.

I must say that in the last two hearings on the Clean Air Act implementation both members of this committee and witnesses who have testified before the committee have given the EPA literally low grades for its implementation efforts.

But today, I'm going to give the EPA an A for its work on the acid rain provisions - not quite perfection, but an A nonetheless.
