摘要:Romania, like other countries of Central and Eastern Europe, has made efforts of approximating its environmental legislation with the European Union. Thus it is probable that substantial and even fundamental changes will be required at the plant level as a result of this process. The compliance cost require that firms make efforts to adjust themselves to the norms and rules set in the regulation and so goes toward improving the environmental performance. These efforts are concretised in a two directions a capital expenditure and operating costs both associated with pollution abatement efforts. If the benefits of pollution control, that is, the damages avoided, are lower than the respective private control costs, polluters will lack incentives to undertake it. So pollution control is a typical case of governmental intervention to correct a market failure.
