Are Questions on the Civil (environmental) exam the same as on the Environmental PE, book question too

I was just wondering if the questions on the Civil Environmental PE exam are similar to the questions on the Environmental PE exam? Does anyone have any idea?
Also, I have an older copy of the Environmental Reference and Practice problems manual from around 2002. Before the second edition came out. Is this still any good, or should I get the newer manual. Same with the Michael LaGrega: Hazardous and Solid Waste Management book. The one I have is about 15 years old.

Thanks guys!

From what I have heard about the all Environmental exam, it is a lot heavier in Environmental Law and Policy (hardly any of that in the CIVIL PM exam). Besides, since April 2009, Environmental has been fused into the Water resources PM, thereby eliminating questions on Air Quality and remediation, Municipal Solid Waste etc. These are all on the 'all environmental' exam. Besides, I think, for obvious reasons, the 'all environmental' exam will get deeper (more specialized theories) into the subject than the CIVIL PM will.

I haven't taken the Environmental PE exam, so my opinion is based on hearsay and comparing the official syllabi.
