Description

The context for this report is based upon certain obligations of the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC), as described in the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC). Specifically, article 10(6)(d) of the NAAEC charges the CEC Council (comprised of the Parties’ cabinet-level environmental officials) to cooperate with the NAFTA Free Trade Commission (FTC) to achieve the environmental goals and objectives of the NAFTA by, inter alia, “considering on an ongoing basis the environmental effects of the NAFTA.”
