I think that the EPA is not only a redundant organization, but it also participates in TONS of pollution in dealing with waste. This is because the most cost effective ways for companies to pollute is on public property, and there's not usually any punishment or restitution for pollution, because pollution isn't considered a violation of rights. With a system of private property, pollution, whether in air or water, then polluting would be less profitable than the costs that would be paid in a common law court. The EPA could be privatized, and it could work like Underwriters Laboratories to help companies know what to do with chemicals or pollutants in the most cost effective way
