Cleanup firms face the unknown

Attendees at the 1995 annual conference of the pollution control industry in New York, NY, expressed concern over the uncertainty of several regulatory reform proposals being deliberated on by Congress. Particularly, they lamented over the Republican Party's strong opposition to the Superfund reauthorization program. They warned that failure to reauthorize the program, coupled with the Congress' inability to reform existing regulations, could significantly reduce their profits in 1996.
