Among the myths taken as fact by the environmental managers of most corporations is the belief that environmental regulations affect all competitors in a given industry uniformly. In reality, regulatory costs - and therefore compliance - fall unevenly, economically disadvantaging some companies and benefiting others. For example, a plant situated near a number of larger noncompliant competitors is less likely to attract the attention of local regulators than is an isolated plant, and less attention means lower costs.
Additionally, large plants can spread compliance costs such as waste treatment across a larger revenue base; on the other hand, some smaller plants may not even be subject to certain provisions such as permit or reporting requirements by virtue of their size. Finally, older production technologies often continue to generate toxic wastes that were not regulated when the technology was first adopted. New regulations have imposed extensive compliance costs on companies still using older industrial coal-fired burners that generate high sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide outputs, for example, whereas new facilities generally avoid processes that would create such waste products. By realizing that they have discretion and that not all industries are affected equally by environmental regulation, environmental managers can help their companies to achieve a competitive edge by anticipating regulatory pressure and exploring all possibilities for addressing how changing regulations will affect their companies specifically.

主题题，本文的目的是劝说，即反对了一种观点并论述理由，属于典型的“新老观点对比型”文章
A错误，文章并没有讨论如何解决环境管理问题
B错误，与“不同的遵守等级”无关
C错误，与“不同的替代管理方法”无关
D错误，与“倡导公司遵守环保管制”无关
E正确，“纠正一种误解”非常符合文中意思
最后几句话是说通过认识到他们有自由裁量权，并认识到并非所有行业都受到环境法规的同等影响，环境管理人员可以通过预见监管压力和探索各种可能性来解决不断变化的法规将如何具体地影响他们的公司，从而帮助他们的公司获得竞争优势。而不是提出解决不平等的方案

The passage did not talk about management problem. It talked about common misconception, and talked management method in last sentence.

本文主要目的在第一句话已经点明，先state了一个misconception 然后用 in reality 反转 说明自己并不认同这个观点 然后用一些连接词 诸如Additionally finally 来验证自己的不认同

主要的purpose并不是说明几个不同level的compliance啊，这些“for example,addition,finally”都是为了例子为了推翻misconception
