Command And Control Environmental Regulation. Even with these contextual factors to consider we thought it would be useful to compare EI and CAC policies and their. Command-and-control CAC policies such as emissions and technology standards and to a lesser extent market-based instruments MBIs such as emissions fees and tradable permits. Command-and-control regulation sets specific limits for pollution emissions andor specific pollution-control technologies that must be used. Policy makers have long favored command-and-control CAC methods to tackle environmental damage.
Second command-and-control regulation is inflexible. But these regulators often lack the capacity to implement monitor and enforce. The number of CAC policies devoted to environmental protection has increased steadily since the 1950s and have been a large part of the overall portfolio of environmental laws andregulation in the industrialized world. Command-and-control is in essence a regulatory approach whereby the government commands pollution reductions eg by setting emissions standards and controls how these reductions are achieved eg through the installation of specific. Policy makers have long favored command-and-control CAC methods to tackle environmental damage. Like their counterparts in industrialized countries environmental regulators in developing countries rely principally on two types of instruments.
Decision-makers often turn to scientists and engineers to assist them to navigate through complex environmental health and societal challenges pervaded by systemic uncertainty ambiguity and ethical implications.

They offer limited flexibility on where and how to reduce pollution. But these regulators often lack the capacity to implement monitor and enforce. In environmental policy the CAC approach basically involves the setting of standards to protect or improve environmental quality. Decision-makers often turn to scientists and engineers to assist them to navigate through complex environmental health and societal challenges pervaded by systemic uncertainty ambiguity and ethical implications. And they often have politically.
