A four month study by economist Ben S. Branch for the Environmental Planning Information Center finds Vermont’s 1970 water pollution law may slow growth but offset losses with gains in tourism and recreation. Job losses could reach 1,200 but likely near 300 as cleaner waters boost other sectors. The law requires permits, cleanup, and imposes fees on polluters.
