protection and vice versa

Previous State • Command and Control
Necessary in early years Lack of knowledge on everyone’s part
• Regulation grew organically (and exponentially) Often in response to crisis or major issues
• Cumbersome – did not balance protection and economic growth Barrier to economic growth and innovation Required signi!cant resources
• mostly for permitting and managing low risk activities Didn’t produce results

Future State
• A modern regulatory system that encourages prosperity, innovation and opportunity, while at the same time protecting public health, safety and the environment. Remove arti!cial barriers to growth Allow business to proceed and enhance
environmental protection Environmental regulation as a managed system
