The deregulation movement affecting the industrialized countries forced the governments to refocus their prescribed standards. In some jurisdictions, the difficulty raised by this practice resulted in the establishment, with the industry, of a negotiation plan for environmental agreements. In this document, we will explore the problematic of the characterization in law of environmental agreements reached by the administration and the industry. Furthermore, we will evaluate the pros and cons of using this system in the public administration. / The subject of this research is mainly based on the depollution attestation adopted in 1988 by the Assemblee Nationale du Quebec to oversee industrial wastes. In effect since 1993, the implementation of this authorization plan has been affected by the various discussions that took place between the pulp and paper industry and the ministere de l'Environnement (MENV). The Protocole d'entente sur la mise en oeuvre des attestations d'assainissement, negociated between the MENV and the Quebec Forest Industries Association in 2000, initiated the licensing procedure of the first depollution attestations to the paper manufacturers targeted by section IV.2 of the Quebec Environment Quality Act. Qualified as a gentlemen's agreement, we will define the obligations of all the parties involved according to the terms of this Memorandum of Understanding. In closing, we will analyze the operating licence systems based upon the integrated approach of the European Union and the United States of America. We will therefore be able to compare the openness to consensus with the industrial sectors of those plans with that of the depollution attestation.

The objective of this research is to determine the degree to which the recent antipollution laws will affect the location of industrial plants.

Thesis (LLM. (Development Management Law)) -- University of Limpopo, 2015 / Water is the source of life for human beings, animals and plants also need water for them to grow. The scourge of water pollution in our country due to various reasons is of great concerns and if left unattended will have dire consequences. Uncontrolled water pollution results in health hazards to human beings, animals and other living things. In terms of our Constitution the state as a custodian of all natural resources has a duty to ensure that water as a scarce resource is preserved for the present and future generations. Legislative measures are needed in order to ensure that same prevails. Legislation imposes measure such as a permit and its condition that must be respected by the holder of such permit. Failure to observe the condition of the permit is punishable by law for both corporates and human beings. Most environmental crimes are caused not by a deliberate intention or negligence but by poor or ineffective management systems. Public education is important in ensuring that water pollution does not take place. Authorities must also be strict in ensuring compliance with permits and prevention of water pollution as prevention is better that cure. This dissertation examines water pollution legislation in South Africa, India and the United Kingdom and offers a comparative analysis and recommendations to South Africa. The three countries are developed and also allocated in three different continents. The examination and analysis of how they fight water pollution gives a chance to South Africa on how it may improve its legislation and maintain its water quality.
