Analysis of the Influence of Federal Air, Water, and Noise Legislation upon Naval Operations

Abstract

This Research Contribution examines the influence upon Naval operations of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and of existing and pending federal air, water, and noise legislation, in light of subsequent implementation by the executive branch and interpretation by the judicial branch. In so doing this paper suggests procedures which will better insure that the letter and the spirit of such legislation are manifested throughout the Navy in decisions concerning environmental matters.
