Carter Signs 1.6 Billion Superfund Cleanup Law
In a final Carter administration victory the 1.6 billion Superfund bill to clean up abandoned hazardous chemical waste dumps and spills becomes law. The president eyed fast action to protect public health and enable cost recovery from responsible chemical firms using a mix of industry levies and taxpayer funding. It covers navigable waters affecting groundwater but excludes oil spills and cites Love Canal and Kentucky's Valley of the Drums as examples.
