    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Environmental Protection Agency protects and enhances our
    environment today and for future generations to the fullest extent
    possible under the laws enacted by Congress. The Agency's mission is to
    control and abate pollution in the areas of air, water, solid waste,
    pesticides, radiation, and toxic substances. Its mandate is to mount an
    integrated, coordinated attack on environmental pollution in cooperation
    with State and local governments.

    The Environmental Protection Agency was established in the executive
    branch as an independent agency pursuant to Reorganization Plan No. 3 of
    1970 (5 U.S.C. app.), effective December 2, 1970. It was created to
    permit coordinated and effective governmental action on behalf of the
    environment. The Agency is designed to serve as the public's advocate
    for a livable environment.

    Activities

    Air and Radiation  The air activities of the Agency include:
        --development of national programs, technical policies, and
    regulations for air pollution control;
        --enforcement of standards;
        --development of national standards for air quality, emission
    standards for new stationary and mobile sources, and emission standards
    for hazardous pollutants;
        --technical direction, support, and evaluation of regional air
    activities; and
        --training in the field of air pollution control.
        Related activities include technical assistance to States and
    agencies having radiation protection programs, including radon
    mitigation programs and a national surveillance and inspection program
    for measuring radiation levels in the environment.

    For further information, call 202-260-7400.

    Water  The Agency's water quality activities represent a coordinated
    effort to restore the Nation's waters, including:
        --development of national programs, technical policies, and
    regulations for water pollution control and water supply;
        --ground water protection;
        --marine and estuarine protection;
        --enforcement of standards;
        --water quality standards and effluent guidelines development;

    [[Page 509]]

    [[Page 510]]

        --technical direction, support, and evaluation of regional water
    activities;
        --development of programs for technical assistance and technology
    transfer; and
        --training in the field of water quality.

    For further information, call 202-260-5700.

    Solid Waste and Emergency Response  The Office of Solid Waste and
    Emergency Response provides policy, guidance, and direction for the
    Agency's hazardous waste and emergency response programs, including:
        --development of policies, standards, and regulations for hazardous
    waste treatment, storage, and disposal;
        --national management of the Superfund toxic waste cleanup program;
        --development of guidelines for the emergency preparedness and
    ``Community Right To Know'' programs;

    hazardous wastes and for underground storage tanks;
        --analysis of technologies and methods for the recovery of useful
    energy from solid waste;
        --economic impact assessment of RCRA and CERCLA regulations;
        --coordination with the Department of Defense on base closure
    environmental issues; and
        --technical assistance in the development, management, and operation
    of waste management activities, including technical assistance to
    Federal facilities.

    For further information, call 202-260-4610.

    Prevention, Pesticides, and Toxic Substances  The Office of Pesticides
    and Toxic Substances is responsible for:
        --developing national strategies for the control of toxic
    substances;
        --directing the pesticides and toxic substances enforcement
    activities;
        --developing criteria for assessing chemical substances, standards
    for test protocols for chemicals, rules and procedures for industry
    reporting, and regulations for the control of substances deemed to be
    hazardous to man or the environment; and
        --evaluating and assessing the impact of existing chemicals, new
    chemicals, and chemicals with new uses to determine the hazard and, if
    needed, develop appropriate restrictions.
        Additional activities include:
        --controlling and regulating pesticides and reducing their use to
    ensure human safety and protection of environmental quality;
        --establishing tolerance levels for pesticides that occur in or on
    food;
        --monitoring pesticide residue levels in food, humans, and nontarget
    fish and wildlife and their environments; and
        --investigating pesticide accidents.
        It also coordinates activities under its statutory responsibilities
    with other agencies for the assessment and control of toxic substances
    and pesticides.

    For further information, call 202-260-2902.

    Research and Development  The Office of Research and Development is
    responsible for a national research program in pursuit of technological
    controls of all forms of pollution. It directly supervises the research
    activities of the Agency's national laboratories and gives technical
    policy direction to those laboratories that support the program
    responsibilities of the regional offices. Close coordination of the
    various research programs is designed to yield a synthesis of knowledge
    from the biological, physical, and social sciences that can be
    interpreted in terms of total human and environmental needs.
        General functions include management of selected demonstration
    programs, planning for Agency environmental quality monitoring programs,
    coordination of Agency monitoring efforts with those of other Federal
    agencies, States, and other public bodies, and dissemination of Agency
    research, development, and demonstration results.

    For further information, call 202-260-7676.

    Regional Offices

    The Agency's 10 regional offices represent its commitment to the
    development of strong local programs for pollution abatement. The
    Regional
