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

    The mission of the Environmental Protection Agency is to protect human
    health and to safeguard the natural environment--air, water, and land--
    upon which life depends to the fullest extent possible under the laws
    enacted by Congress.

    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:
        --developing national programs, policies, regulations, and standards
    for air quality, emission standards for stationary and mobile sources,
    and emission standards for hazardous air pollutants;
        --conducting research and providing information on indoor air
    pollutants to the public;
        --providing technical direction, support, and evaluation of regional
    air activities;
        --providing training in the field of air pollution control; and
        --providing 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;
        --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:

    [[Page 508]]

    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 Prevention,
    Pesticides, and Toxic Substances is responsible for:
        --promoting pollution prevention and the public's right to know
    about chemical risk;
        --developing and implementing strategies to promote pollution
    prevention through source reduction;
        --evaluating and regulating pesticides and chemicals to safeguard
    all Americans;
        --establishing safe levels for pesticide residues on food;
        --developing national strategies for control of toxic substances;
        --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 that may be
    hazardous to people or the environment; and
        --evaluating and assessing the impact of existing chemicals, new
    chemicals, and chemicals with new uses to determine the hazard and
    develop appropriate restrictions.
        The Office 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 (ORD)
    provides the scientific foundation for the Agency's environmental
    protection mission. ORD's chief role is to conduct and support high
    quality research targeted to understanding and resolving the Nation's
    most serious environmental threats. In addition, ORD develops methods
    and technologies to reduce exposures to pollution and prevent its
    creation. The Office is also a major player in sharing information on
    technological innovations to protect people and the environment. ORD
    prepares health and ecological risk assessments and makes
    recommendations for sound risk management strategies in order to assure
    that highest risk pollution problems receive optimum remediation. The
    Office manages a vital extramural grants program entitled Science To
    Achieve Results (STAR), which awards research grants to scientists in
    universities and students in environmental science. All ORD extramural
    and intramural research is carefully aligned to support Agency
    environmental goals and strategic priorities.

    For further information, call 202-564-6620.

    Regional Offices

    The Agency's 10 regional offices represent its commitment to the
    development of strong local programs for pollution abatement. The
    Regional Administrators are responsible for accomplishing, within their
    regions, the national program objectives established by the Agency. They
    develop, propose, and implement an approved regional program for
    comprehensive and

    [[Page 510]]

    integrated environmental protection activities.
