Question:
In American Trucking Associations et al. v. Christine Todd Whitman (U.S. Supreme Court 99-1426), Section 108 (National Ambient Air Quality Standards) and Section 109 (a) of the Clean Air Act were litigated on vastly different values and understanding of the mandate of the Clean Air Act. One stakeholder, the American Trucking Associations' objective was to minimize the cost of environmental compliance. The US EPA, the other stakeholder, wanted to regulate truck with regulations that are, as mandated by these two Sections, health-protective and explicitly barred the consideration of costs in setting standards under these two Sections of the Clean Air Act. The US Supreme Court, which held for the US EPA, conflicted with American Trucking Associations's beliefs. The analysis of the interactions between these two stakeholders can use coupled influence diagrams. Please develop one. The coupling should reflect where, in the diagrams, one stakeholder's action or value affects the other. Use approximately 600 words.
