EPA official cites $105.2 billion five year pollution cleanup plan
Robert W. Tri of the EPA argues that spending 105.2 billion over five years to clean air water and waste would cost less than living with pollution. He breaks out costs 38 billion for water 23.7 for air and 43.5 for trash with most air costs in 1974 1975. He notes job losses from shutdowns and relocations but says pollution controls will stay and can boost profits when precise regulations are used.
