Respuesta :

Answer:

B. A tax on Simon Paper for exceeding certain levels of pollution.

Explanation:

By law, they cannot force Simon out of business.

Forcing him to move to a new "green" facility will not make the problem disappear, it will only move the problem to Greenville.

The only solution is taxing him for exceeding certain levels of pollution.
