Questions: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is concerned about the high levels of air pollution in American cities. The EPA proposes a regulation that requires a city with a population density of a specific size to reduce their air pollution by any means necessary within 12 months. The city of Los Angeles does not believe this regulation must be followed because it is not a law passed by a government. Is the city of Los Angeles correct? Yes as this is not a statute passed by a government, and thus, the regulation does not have to be followed. No because this is a regulation promulgated by an administrative agency and is therefore administrative law and must be followed. Yes because this regulation is unconstitutional and thus is void. No because this is a regulation promulgated by an administrative agency and is therefore constitutional law and must be followed.

The answer is: No because this is a regulation promulgated by an administrative agency and is therefore administrative law and must be followed.

This option is incorrect because regulations issued by administrative agencies like the EPA have the force of law. While they are not statutes passed by a legislative body, they are legally binding under the authority granted to the agency by Congress.

This option is correct. The EPA, as an administrative agency, has the authority to issue regulations that have the force of law. These regulations are considered administrative law and must be adhered to by the entities they govern, including cities like Los Angeles.

This option is incorrect without further context. Regulations can be challenged on constitutional grounds, but there is no information provided in the question to suggest that this specific regulation is unconstitutional.

This option is incorrect in its reasoning. While the regulation must be followed, it is not considered constitutional law. It is administrative law, which is distinct from constitutional law.
