ENER1503 Environmental Awareness & Regulatory Compliance
An overview of the genesis for all major federal environmental laws in the United States. Additionally, all corresponding State of California environmental laws are reviewed and how they support and, in some cases, differ from their federal counterparts. Students are expected to have a general knowledge of how environmental statutes are promulgated on the State and Federal levels. Students are expected to be able to conduct legal research. Also, understand the ambiguity of statutes and regulations and why they are written that way. The class is divided into teams that have to conduct a semester long class project that identifies Federal, State and Local statutes/regulations that will be encountered during the project.
