Too much

Prove it. I have looked many times and found very little information on the cost of compliance with EPA regulations. Hard facts; I can find little. My guess for manufacturing is less then 1%. But to bean counters 1% is cause to do radical things like move a factory to Mars if need be.

Entire chemical related industries no longer exist in America because of EPA regs.

Total cost of federal regulations in 2012 was $2.028 trillion (in 2014 dollars). The annual cost burden for an average U.S. firm is $233,182, or 21 percent of average payroll.
