CRS-20 the Higher Education Act. During the past few years, States have begun to play a greater role as they have enacted student grant and loan programs to supple- ment the Federal programs.

CRS-28% As discussed in the sections on the aquatic environment and soils, some scientists believe that the damage that isobserved in forests and lakes is from natural causes. Klein and Vogelmann state with respect to natural causes being responsible for the damage at Camel's Hump: Hypotheses based on drought, insect, or disease etiology are grossly inadequate, although drought certainly can be a contributing stress factor explaining some but not all of the observed and simulated _alterations. Inadequate evidence and illogical interpretations mitigate against acceptance of a drought causation much as this would please some sectors of the economy. l ' Status of Information. Scientists agreé that no direct cause and effect relationship has yet been found for the damage that forests are receiving. As Ralph Perhac, director of the Electric Power Research Institute expressed it: We are hard-pressed to relate that%damage to a specific agent or to demonstrate effects that can specifically be attributed to acidic deposition. i Dr. Arthur Johnson capsulizes the problems researchers experience in trying to find a cause and effect link: We cannot, at present, confidentlygassess what is actually happening or what might happen in our forests based on the experimental results because we lack detailed process-level information, because the exper- imental acid applications are not uniform in producing benefit or harm, and because the experimental conditions are simple compared to the complex of factors which controls the growth, reproduction, and health of trees in the forest. f Many scientists think that because causal relationships cannot at present be identified, more research is the most reasonable course of action. the American Paper Institute and the National Forest Products Association state: The lack of scientific consensus on possible damage to forests and other ecosystems, coupled with aberrations on what should have been the expected trends in deposition and effects . . . lead the forest products industry to a consensus view of serious reservation about the environmental benefit which would result from several of the acid rain control proposals now before Congress. . . . We strongly support the research program. . . directed at finding answers to questions that should be resolved before any additional plan on acid rain can be developed.
