Implementing Connecticut's EJ Law
This 36-slide presentation outlines which polluting facilities and entities and which activities are regulated by the new EJ law; it also describes new responsibilities to communities impacted by polluting activities. The presentation is geared to industry professionals, but can be a reference to anyone with interest in the technical aspects of the new law.
