<p>'The authors attempt to bring to earth much of the environmental literature that implicitly assumes pollutant dischargers will comply with environmental laws regardless of their self-interest and that violators are discovered and punished-reality holds otherwise.' <br />Energy Review</p>

Economic models are used to show the extent of the difficulties involved in monitoring and enforcing pollution control laws on a continual basis. The authors make several recommendations for policy change. They also show that high rates of compliance can be achieved within tight budget constraints.
