Expert Legal Solutions for Water, Land, and Environmental Compliance in Dallas
The Clean Water Act (CWA) is one of the most important pieces of environmental legislation in the United States, designed to protect water quality and prevent pollution in the nation’s lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands. Compliance with the Clean Water Act is critical for businesses and industries that discharge water or operate near bodies of water.
