I am actually an environmental engineer! I just got my master's.
I know a little about it. Some fields of it include public health, waste disposal and air pollution control to name a few.
Water and sanitation are also very important fields
The Clean Water Act regulates our water pollution regulations here.
That's an incredibly important bill by the EPA
Yes it is a federal law here in the United States that governs all water pollution!
Water pollution can be very nasty. Good thing we have been able to prevent problems, for the most part
Yes our water laws help us prevent the release of pollutants into our stored drinking water. We are very fortunate.
Yes we are. Hopefully they last this presidency
, and limiting pollutant discharges from effluent sources. Regulatory areas include sewage treatment and disposal, industrial and agricultural waste water management, and control of surface runoff from construction sites and urban environments.section end=overview /
Regulated waters.
The Earth's hydrosphere is ubiquitous, fluid, and complex. Within the water cycle, physical water moves without regard to political boundaries between the Earth's atmosphere, surface, and subsurface, through both natural and man-made channels. Consequently, water quality laws must define the portion of this

- and improve environmental-related enhancement of the quality of human life.
Environmental engineers devise solutions for waste water management, water and air pollution control, recycling, waste disposal, and public health. They design municipal water supply and industrial wastewater treatment systems, and design plans to prevent waterborne diseases and improve sanitation in urban, rural and recreational areas. They evaluate hazardous-waste management systems to evaluate the severity of such hazards, advise on treatment and containment, and develop regulations to prevent mishaps. They
