Officials Look at Pollution Laws
By PHILIP WILDMAN Kansan Staff Writer
Kansas state pollution control laws are new laws; of the six current state laws, all but one have been passed since 1967.
Seven officials involved in the administration of the various departments have also adequate, with the only complaints centerring on a lack of
Proof of each law's efficiency will not definieth be known for some time, as most have either had it or had never done it concretely, for several years.
As the Kansas pollution laws now stand, a number of different agencies have issued jurisdiction over violators is handed by various officials, and prosecutors.
The administrating agency is responsible for finding violations of the law. A civil court action is eventually brought about, if necessary, to eliminate the violation.
The state attorney general prosecutes cases concerning air pollution, and the county attorney for the county involved handles the pesticide and the solid waste laws. No specific law applies to the legislation for the feed lot laws. The planning agency, as an independent group, has no jurisdiction.
Regarding the air pollution law, the Board of Health now
adopts specific regulations; this power stems from the fact that the state law's basic air pollution laws are quite general in its directions.
These specific regulations didn't become effective until January 1, 1971.
"Since then, there haven't been any prosecutions because the regulations aren't to arrest people, but to get the restrictions in place. The Guard Squad, chief of Air Quality Control and Occupational Health.
Getting the restrictions enforced, here, involves giving the pollution source a six months period to prove its provable plan to correct the problem; if so, a two to three year period is usually allotted for the cleanup.
Saiger said, "There is no air pollution control mentioned in the report," he added. "The mendation, thus, there will be no air pollution control program."
He said that he feels the present air pollution law to be responsible for reducing the was reviewed and approved by the federal government about six years ago.
The basic water pollution law was passed in 1907, amended somewhat in the '50's and then amended again in 1967.
"They must have been written well if they were first written that long ago," said N. Burris, chief of Water Quality Control.
He said that he was satisfied with the administrative powers of his agency.
Burris said that court action "has never materialized" because enforcement has been possible without court action.
Burrin pointed to the Board of Health's responsibility for water-pollution control aspects of feed the prime pollution problem here.
So far, none of the counties has submitted a plan to be developed which specifically concerns the material acquisition and disposal of solid waste.
"I think that the present solid waste management act is a good piece of legislation that should be used by city officials and city officials will address themselves to the responsibilities of city officials in full head of Solid Waste Control.
In the past, according to Shull, many towns and all counties avoided any involvement in solid oil production until it to the individual. Because of this, he said, by June 30, 1974, counties are to have a county plan developed and adopted that would be maintained in last year's legislature.
Cities have the option of making their own plan, but unless they do, the county plan will cover them.
The only present and past enforcement authority, here, stemmed from a public nuisance
"This has involved nothing but persuasion," said Shull.
act made at the turn of the century.
"The Board of Health handles the pollution part" of enforcement, said Earl Boz, office manager for the Animal Health Department.
The new, more restrictive prestice use law will become effective; January 1. 1973.
The function of the Governor's Council on Ecology, despite the current state legislature's calling for its existence, is one of coordination.
"There are registration cases (legal cases) frequently," according to Byron Patton, office manager of Weed and Pesticide Division.
Any pest enforcement has involved, simply, failure of registration. This registration is not valid for the next age ago, brings only civil action.
An act of legislation in 1970 established this law.
"We help eliminate duplication," said Dale Saffels, chairman of the group.
Saffeis said that there is only a full-time staff of one, but that the agency works with people, often in other departments, jobs, including those from universitys, the State Board of Forestry, and Game Commission.
The service, then, essentially involves relaying information to and from such groups.

The Emporium, the contact book selling service run by the Student Services Committee of the University, resumed operation Monday.
Hope Kuo, Apia, Fiji Islands sophomeh and assistant manager of The Emporium, said business would pick up this week.
"The only criticism I have," she said, "is that students ate all of it and threw it through us. They wanted ready money at the end of the week."
Gordon Goulden, Topeka sophomore and manager of The Emporium, said that during enrollment and the first week of classes The Emporium would be closed on Monday through Friday and after that from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

The other procedure is the shelving system. Textbooks that have been used but won't be used are replaced. Supplemental readings are put on the shelves and are available for purchase.
Each person sets his own prices for books.

"Eighteen to 20 members too cumbersome—most of these people have full-time jobs," said Saffel.
Saffel said that improvement would exist if more full-time staff members could be hired.
Assistant Atty. Gen Bill Ward said that Kansas state pollution laws are still "too new" to tell how effective they would be.
One certainty is that to date, little potency has existed in the implementation of pollution control.
A PAULIST DOESN'T WAIT TO BE ORDAINED TO GET INVOLVED.
The Paulists were founded with the belief that each man is a person and he contributes to the community and his contributions. Each is an individual with his own talents and he is given his own way; but not later. Now...
For instance, during the novice rate, novices work in such diverse areas as hospitals, vocational schools and universities. They serve as assistant chapels, co-retreat masters, teachers and psychiatric aides.

Paulist Seminarians create recreational programs, direct "Days of Recollection" for CCD students and experiment with the use of an in the lurency as a peaching tool, originate and edit the Paulist Free Press, coordinate Lenten Masses, to mention just a few.

When you commit yourself to the Paulists, it isn't a someday thing. It's now. Today.
