Thirty witnesses spoke at the three-day oversight hearing held in July, 1981. The hearings were the first comprehensive review of the 15-year-old law since it was amended in 1974. Despite general agreement on the Act's principles, criticism of some of its procedures indicates a need for minor revision and clarification to make it more fair and more efficient. Those seeking major revisions are warned that they carry the burden of proof to substantiate their allegations of injury. The witnesses represented trade associations, corporation, and public-interest groups. The record includes their testimony, additional letters and statements submitted for the record, and three appendices. (DCK)
