Several federal environmental statutes, including the Clean Water Act (CWA), the Clean Air Act (CAA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response and Liability Act (CERCLA), can force the cleanup of environmental contamination. Lawsuits are brought on behalf of the government and are restricted to enforcement of either state or federal environmental laws or regulations.
