Abstract:

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) regulates and establishes environmental standards and protects and enhances the environment through divisions such as: Air; Water; Hazardous Waste; and Groundwater and Solid Waste. The MPCA makes available guidance on a number of topics through links at their World Wide Web site. Linking on "General Publications" provides users with a listing of printed brochures, booklets, fact sheets and teacher information which are available in limited quantities by contacting the MPCA Public Information Office. These publications are divided into general interest, air quality, hazardous waste, solid waste, groundwater pollution, and water quality.
