Abstract

The Maine Board of Environmental Protection has dropped plans to impose state limits on dioxin levels in Maine waters, preferring instead to wait for a federal reassessment of dioxin's toxicity before acting. The decision means the paper mills that discharge dioxin into Maine's rivers will continue to be regulated under federal, rather than state, standards.
