Title: Accidental Release Prevention Requirements: Risk Management Program Under the Clean Air Act; Retrospection 
Abstract: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is considering revising the Risk Management Program (RMP) regulations, which implement the requirements of section 112(r)(7) of the 1990 Clean Air Act amendments.
