Love Canal Tragedy

Brief explanation of the case, Responses that actually took place: include here social repercussions, law enforcement responses; justice responses (civil, criminal, restorative, etcetera); policy responses (Executive and/or Legislative branches from local, state and/or federal level).

The policy’s goal can be either to prevent similar problems from happening, or to provide a clear administrative solution if they appear.
