Description: "Environmental justice means the fair treatment and meaningful  involvement of all people regardless of race, color, or income with respect  to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental  laws, regulations, and policies. Fair treatment means that no group of  people, including a racial, ethnic, or socioeconomic group, should bear a  disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences  resulting from industrial, municipal, and commercial operations or the  execution of federal, state, local, and tribal programs and policies."--P. 1.
