Abstract

"The Talk of Maine" piece on Governor LePage's controversial efforts to repeal environmental protections in Maine. The governor's "Phase 1" regulatory reform proposal would "effectively roll back a half-century's worth of environmental and public health protections." With details on the regulations targeted for repeal, background information about the historical development of Maine's environmental protections and the involvement of lobbyists for companies that would benefit from relaxed regulations in the creation of the governor's reform plans and environmental policy.
