Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) culminated years of effort by state and local government officials and business interests to control, if not eliminate, the imposition of unfunded intergovernmental and private-sector federal mandates. Advocates argued the statute was needed to forestall federal legislation and regulations that imposed obligations on state and local governments or businesses that resulted in higher costs and inefficiencies. Opponents argued that federal mandates may be necessary to achieve national objectives in areas where voluntary action by state and local...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) California is experiencing serious water shortages due to widespread drought. Both of the state's large water infrastructure projects, the federal Central Valley Project (CVP) and the State Water Project (SWP), have had to reduce water deliveries in 2014 to the farmers and communities they serve.

Carbon Tax and Greenhouse Gas Control: Options and Considerations for Congress
ISBN: 9781499311372 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Market-based mechanisms that limit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be divided into two types: quantity control (e.g., cap-and-trade) and price control (e.g., carbon tax or fee). To some extent, a carbon tax and a cap-and-trade program would produce similar effects: Both are estimated to increase the price of fossil fuels, which would ultimately be borne by consumers, particularly households. Although there are multiple tools available to policymakers that could control GHG emissions-including existing statutory authorities-this report focuses on a carbon tax approach and how it compares to...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Foster care is a temporary living arrangement for children who cannot remain safely in their own homes. For nearly every child who enters foster care, a first goal of the child welfare agency is to ensure necessary services are identified, and provided, so that the child can quickly and safely return to his or her parents. Most children who leave foster care do so to be reunited with parents or other family members. For some children, however, this is not possible. In those cases, the child welfare agency must work to find a new permanent home for these children and this may be accomplished...
