Title: The environmental dictionary

Book ·
OSTI ID:6591927

The Environmental Dictionary was designed for individuals researching environmental regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Protection of the Environment (40 CFR). This book defines the highly technical and sometimes confusing terminology used throughout 40 CFR. Definitions are from two sources: (1) Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Protection of the Environment, Revised as of July 1, 1987, and (2) The Federal Register (updates pertaining to 40 CFR) for the period covering 1 July 1987 through 30 June 1989. The Dictionary contains numerous cross-referencing and finding aids. Beyond its use in interpreting Title 40 regulations, the Dictionary may be of value to individuals that are in need of a dictionary that covers the myriad of technical terms used in the environmental sciences including the biological, chemical, legal, and planning aspects.
