However, a number of unresolved issues exist which may impede further progress. The environmental laws of the 1970's re- flected a single-purpose approach to pollu- tion control that limited flexibility in deci- sionmaking. For example, pollution control laws not only increased the volume of wastes--like sewage sludge--but also prohib- ited or severely restricted available disposal options. The tradeoffs that must be made among the various environmental pro- grams and the net environmental effect of pollution control actions must be recog- nized. A companion volume to this study contains case studies of environmental programs in Cleveland, Dallas, and New York. \ ,D S 7y, 119008 Z7 OGAO/CED-82-72 JULY 21, 1982 71'C, J 41, , 1
