AP US Government
Unit 1 – Foundations of American Democracy
Topic 1.9
How does the Clean Air Act highlight cooperative federalism?
Only the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enforces the Clean Air Act without state involvement.
It requires both federal environmental standards enforcement along with local compliance efforts by individual states.
The Clean Air Act allows each individual state to determine its own air quality standards independently without any central oversight or regulation requirements.
States are solely responsible for setting air quality standards, while the federal government lacks any authority in this matter under the act.
