handle is hein.gao/gaobabdav0001 and id is 1 raw text is: REPORT BY THE U.S. General Accounting Office A Market Approach/o Air Pollution Control Could Reduce Compliance Costs Without Jeopardizing Clean Air Goals A market approach to air pollution control would allow the purchase, sale, and use of air pollution entitlements consistent with present standards governing outdoor air qual- ity. A market incentive approach can lower the cost of clean outdoor air by allowing firms to find the most efficient way to con- trol pollution without jeopardizing the air quality standards of the Clean Air Act. Prob- lems in implementing such an approach can be overcome. The committees with jurisdiction over the Clean Air Act should consider rewriting some of the provisions which currently limit the use of market incentives. Also, the committees should encourage the Environmental Protection Agency to em- phasize a market approach to air pollu- tion control wherever this system can achieve air quality at less cost and is permissible under the Act.
