SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Environmental Justice Act of 1993''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) Toxic chemicals are being released in significant 
        amounts into the environment. Over three billion five hundred 
        million pounds of toxic releases were reported by approximately 
        nineteen thousand six hundred industrial plants in 1990, under 
        the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act.
            (2) Notwithstanding the benefits of the Emergency Planning 
        and Community Right-to-Know Act, many toxic chemicals posing 
        substantial health threats as a result of releases, are not 
        being reported. The Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-
        Know Act excludes hundreds of chemicals listed as toxics under 
        various environmental laws including: sixteen hazardous air 
        pollutants, and five extremely hazardous substances listed in 
        the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments; one hundred and forty 
        chemicals regulated as hazardous waste under the Resource 
        Conservation and Recovery Act because of acute or chronic 
        toxicity; over two hundred chemicals identified as known or 
        probable human carcinogens by the EPA and the National 
        Toxicology Program; sixty-nine special review pesticides 
        identified under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and 
        Rodenticide Act and hundreds of restricted use pesticides; and 
        ninety reproductive toxins identified by the California 
        Department of Health.
            (3) Although environmental and health data of toxic 
        chemical releases are not routinely collected and analyzed by 
        income and race, racial and ethnic minorities and lower income 
        Americans may be disproportionately exposed to toxic chemicals 
        in their residential and workplace environments.

SEC. 3. PURPOSES AND POLICIES.

    The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to establish and maintain information which provides an 
        objective basis for assessment of health effects by income and 
        race;
            (2) to identify those areas with the largest releases of 
        toxic chemicals to the air, land, water, and workplace;
            (3) to assess the health effects that may be caused by 
        emissions in those areas of highest environmental impact;
            (4) to ensure that groups or individuals residing within 
        High Environmental Impact Areas have the opportunity and the 
        resources to participate in the technical process which will 
        determine the possible existence of adverse health impacts;
            (5) to identify those activities in high environmental 
        impact areas found to have significant adverse impacts on human 
        health; and
            (6) to incorporate environmental equity considerations into 
        planning and implementation of all Federal environmental 
        programs and statutes.

Designates the 100 counties with the highest total releases as Environmental High Impact Areas.  Requires the publication of such list every five years. 
Directs the Administrator and the Secretary of Labor to conduct compliance inspections of all toxic chemical facilities in such Areas at least every two years.  Delegates such authority to States or Indian tribes authorized to administer Federal laws regulating toxic chemicals.
