This appropriation supports EPA’s core programs, and the
Agency’s effective management goal to establish a management infrastructure that will set and implement the highest
quality standards for effective internal management and fiscal
responsibility. To assist the Agency in accomplishing this goal,
the Office of Inspector General (OIG) will provide audit, evaluation, and investigative products and advisory services to
improve the performance and integrity of EPA programs and
operations. These products and services will contribute substantially to improved environmental quality and human
health. Specifically, the OIG performs contract audits and
investigations which focus on costs claimed by contractors,
and on the award and management of contracts. Assistance
agreement audits and investigations evaluate the award, administration, and costs of assistance agreements. Program audits, evaluations and investigations determine the extent to
which the desired results or benefits envisioned by the Administration and Congress are being achieved, and identify
activities that contribute to or undermine the integrity, efficiency, and effectiveness of Agency programs. Financial statement audits review financial systems and statements to ensure that adequate controls are in place and the Agency’s
accounting information is accurate, reliable and useful, and
complies with applicable laws and regulations. Systems audits
review the economy, efficiency, and effectiveness of operations
by examining the Agency’s management structures, its strategic planning, human resources development, customer focus,
and process management. Additional funds for audit, evaluation and investigative activities associated with the Superfund
Trust Fund are appropriated under that account and transferred to the Inspector General account to allow for proper
accounting, including the costs of the ombudsman function.
This appropriation also supports activities under the Working
Capital Fund.

This appropriation finances salary, travel, science, technology, research and development activities including laboratory and center supplies, certain operating expenses (including activities under the Working Capital Fund), contracts,
grants, intergovernmental agreements, and purchases of scientific equipment. These activities provide the scientific and
technology basis for EPA’s regulatory actions.
Superfund research costs are appropriated in the Hazardous Substance Superfund appropriation and transferred
to this account to allow for proper accounting. A portion of
funding provided through this account to support the mobile
sources program is to be derived from fees charged for motor
vehicle engine certifications that are deposited in the Environmental Services special fund.
This appropriation supports core Agency programs and a
number of the Agency’s ten goals. Specifically in 2004, our
emphasis will be placed on the following:
Clean Air.—To ensure that every American community has
safe and healthy air to breathe, EPA will conduct a range
of science and technology activities. These include research
on the effects to human health of toxic air pollutants, and
research on criteria air pollutants (ozone, carbon monoxide,
sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, lead, and particulate matter)
to develop the scientific basis for EPA’s national ambient
air quality standards. EPA will also develop control measures
for mobile sources, including the development of cleaner engine technologies, and cleaner burning fuels and tools for
States to develop clean air plans and achieve the air quality
standards.
Clean and Safe Water.—To support the goal of the American public having water that is clean and safe to drink,
EPA will conduct research to support development of water
quality and safe drinking water standards. A concerted effort
will be made to help small communities meet the new drinking water standards for arsenic, microbial contaminants, and
disinfection byproducts. EPA will work with states, tribes,
drinking water and wastewater utilities, and other partners
to enhance the security of water utilities. EPA will also conduct the research to strengthen the scientific basis for development of effective beach evaluation tools, and to enhance
understanding of the structure and function of aquatic systems through the development of improved aquatic
ecocriteria.
Safe Food.—To ensure that the food the American public
consumes will be free from unsafe pesticide residues, EPA
research laboratories and centers provide analytical and environmental chemistry services in support of EPA’s registration,
reregistration and tolerance/reassessment programs for fooduse pesticides. Also, EPA laboratories will provide analytical
chemistry capabilities to validate food tolerance enforcement
methods.

EPA

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

Preventing Pollution and Reducing Risk in Communities,
Homes, Workplaces and Ecosystems.—EPA will enhance its
assessments of potential risks to human health and ecological
systems from commercial chemicals, microorganisms and genetically modified organisms. Pollution Prevention and risk
management strategies will be aimed at cost-effectively eliminating, reducing, or minimizing potential risks due to emissions and contamination. The Agency aims to improve indoor
environments through technical support, analysis and producing necessary information to understand indoor air effects,
and identifying potential health risks so that risk managers
can make informed decisions.
Better Waste Management, Restoration of Contaminated
Waste Sites, and Emergency Response.—To ensure that America’s waste will be stored, treated, and disposed of in ways
that prevent harm to people and the environment, EPA will
research ways to reduce uncertainties associated with groundwater/soil/sediment sampling and analysis, to develop methods and models of contaminant transport, and to reduce the
time and cost associated with site characterization and the
site remediation activities that it guides. Field analytical
methods for characterizing soils are also intended to provide
cheaper and more timely analyses and to reduce the uncertainty of site characterization.
Reduction of Global and Cross-Border Environmental
Risks.—EPA global change research is dedicated to enhancing
our capability to assess the vulnerability of human health
and ecosystems to climate-induced stressors at the regional
scale, and to assess mitigation and adaptation strategies. The
Agency will continue to work with the U.S. automobile industry in a cooperative research effort to develop advanced automotive powertrain and engine technology that is both clean
and highly fuel efficient. This effort will focus on developing
cost-effective, near-term technologies for cleaner and more efficient cars and trucks that can run on both conventional
and renewable fuels. Through its Transportation Efficiency
Program, EPA will support ongoing efforts to provide public
information about transportation choices and consumers’ impact on air quality, traffic congestion and climate changes.
Quality Environmental Information.—To provide the public
with information about the environment, EPA will continue
to focus on improving data collection and data quality and
on deploying new technologies for real time and automated
measurement, monitoring and information delivery. EPA intends to develop policies and procedures for planning, documenting, implementing and assessing data collection for use
in making Agency decisions.
Sound Science, Improved Understanding of Environmental
Risk, and Greater Innovation to Address Environmental Problems.—EPA will develop and apply the best available science
for addressing current and future environmental hazards, as
well as new approaches toward improving environmental protection. The Agency will continue to improve its understanding of risks to the health of the American public and
the Nation’s ecosystems. EPA will address emerging environmental issues while seeking to develop innovative, cost-effective solutions to pollution prevention and risk reduction. EPA
will seek to reduce uncertainties in risk assessment and help
to prevent and manage risk by using cost-effective approaches.
A Credible Deterrent to Pollution and Greater Compliance
with the Law.—The National Enforcement Investigations Center is the primary source of forensics expertise in EPA. It
provides technical services not available elsewhere to support
the needs of EPA Headquarters and Regional offices, other
Federal Agencies, and state and local environmental enforcement organizations.
Effective Management.—EPA will improve the quality of
its internal management, contract administration, and fiscal
responsibility efforts. The Agency will invest in its employees

through training, education and implementation of automated
and streamlined human resource processes. The Agency will
focus its contracting efforts on performance-based service contracts instead of the traditional cost-plus, level-of-effort contracting, relying on guidance developed by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. EPA will concentrate on resolution
of material weaknesses previously identified in the area of
grant closeouts, and on implementation of the best practices
identified government-wide by the General Account Office
(GAO) for information resources management and integration
of information technology investments. EPA will also provide
support for electronic reporting to reduce the burden to the
Agency’s highest-volume submitters.

This appropriation includes funds for salaries, travel, contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements for pollution abatement, control, and compliance activities and administrative
activities of the operating programs, including activities under
the Working Capital Fund.
This appropriation supports core Agency programs and each
of the Agency’s ten goals. Specifically in 2004, EPA will emphasize the following:
Clean Air.—To ensure that every American community has
safe and healthy air to breathe, EPA will develop and implement new strategies to attain ambient air quality standards
for ozone and particulate matter, and reduce regional haze
through geographic initiatives in areas where significant
transport of pollutants occurs. EPA will continue to develop
and issue national technology-based and risk-based standards
to reduce the quantity of toxic air pollutants emitted from
industrial and manufacturing processes, as well as urban
sources. EPA will also develop control measures for mobile,
stationary and other sources that are regulated at the Federal
level. The Acid Rain program will continue its market-based
approach to achieving reduced emissions of sulfur dioxide and
nitrogen oxides primarily from electric utilities.
Clean and Safe Water.—To provide all Americans with
water that is clean and safe to drink, EPA will work with
States and Tribes in developing and implementing new drinking water standards for microbiological contaminants, disinfectant and disinfection byproducts, and chemicals identified
as posing high risks. EPA will also work with its State and
Tribal partners to address protection of drinking water
sources and will take a leadership role to enhance security
at drinking water and wastewater facilities. EPA will provide
the tools and guidance for its partners to better protect the
Nation’s waters, and protect and restore wetlands. EPA and
its partners will make progress toward completing Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for impaired U.S. waters and
improving implementation of TMDL programs. EPA will work
with its partners to assure effective implementation of the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System and
pretreatment program. EPA will also work with its partners
to address sources of polluted runoff.
Safe Food.—To ensure that the foods Americans eat will
be free from unsafe levels of pesticide residues, EPA plans
to apply strict health-based standards to the registration of
pesticides for use on food or animal feed, ensure that older
pesticides meet current health standards, decrease the use
of pesticides with the highest potential to cause adverse effects, and expedite and increase the registration of safer pesticides.
Preventing Pollution and Reducing Risk in Communities,
Homes, Workplaces and Ecosystems.—Pollution prevention
and risk management strategies will be aimed at cost-effectively eliminating, reducing, or minimizing toxic chemical
emissions and contamination. EPA intends to reduce potential
human and environmental risks as a result of pesticides from
commercial and residential exposure, as well as programs
targeting farmworker protection, endangered species protection, environmental stewardship, and integrated pest management. Through voluntary actions, EPA seeks to ensure
healthier indoor air for American homes, schools and office
buildings. EPA plans to encourage the development of safer
chemicals by minimizing or reducing the regulatory burdens
on new chemicals that replace more hazardous chemicals already in the marketplace. The toxicity of wastes will be reduced by focusing on reductions in persistent, bioaccumulative
and toxic (PBTs) chemicals. The quantity of wastes will also
be reduced through source reduction and recycling.
Better Waste Management, Restoration of Contaminated
Waste Sites, and Emergency Response.—To ensure that AmerSfmt 3616

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

ica’s waste will be stored, treated, and disposed of in ways
that prevent harm to people and to the natural environment,
EPA will continue its Hazardous Waste Minimization and
Combustion Strategy, including setting new standards for
hazardous waste incinerators and cement kilns that burn hazardous waste. In addition, the Agency will focus on controlling
human exposures and groundwater releases at Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) facilities designated as
high priority for corrective action. EPA will develop and promulgate standards, regulations, and guidelines to reduce exposure from radiation sources. The Agency will also provide
for the federal administrative expenses of brownfields cleanup
activities. Funds reimbursed to EPA under the Exxon Valdez
settlement are available to carry out authorized environmental restoration activities.
Reduction of Global and Cross-Border Environmental
Risks.—The United States will lead other nations in successful, multilateral efforts to reduce significant risks to human
health and ecosystems from climate change, stratospheric
ozone depletion, and other environmental hazards of international concern. EPA will implement formal bilateral and
multilateral environmental agreements with key countries,
execute environmental components of key foreign policy initiatives, and engage in regional and global negotiations aimed
at reducing environmental risks via formal and informal
agreements. EPA will cooperate with other countries to ensure that domestic and international environmental laws,
policies, and priorities are recognized and implemented and,
where appropriate, promoted within the multilateral development assistance and trading system. EPA will also emphasize
domestic and international efforts to limit the production and
use of ozone-depleting substances and develop safe alternative
compounds, and demonstrate and promote public/private partnership programs that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In
accordance with the Great Lakes Legacy Act, EPA will work
with states and tribal partners to remediate contaminated
sediment sites. Contaminated sediments can adversely affect
human health and aquatic life and contribute to fish consumption advisories. Remediation will help remove toxic pollutants from the Great Lakes, resulting in water quality improvements and fish that are less contaminated and safer
to eat.
Quality Environmental Information.—The unprecedented
changes in information technology over the past few years,
combined with an increasing public demand for information,
are altering the way the Agency and States collect, manage,
analyze, use, secure, and provide access to quality environmental information. EPA is working with the States and
Tribes to strengthen our information quality, leverage information maintained by other government organizations, and
develop new tools that provide the public with simultaneous
access to multiple data sets, allowing users to understand
local, state, regional, and national environmental conditions.
Key to achieving information quality will be the further development of the National Environmental Information Exchange
Network, which is primarily an affiliation between EPA and
the States and Tribes. EPA will continue to develop and define a fundamentally new approach to integrating, managing,
and providing access to environmental information. EPA will
continue to reduce reporting burden, improve data quality,
and speed data publications by increasing the amount of electronic reporting under the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI). EPA
intends to expand the use of the Internet for delivering this
information.
Sound Science, Improved Understanding of Environmental
Risk, and Greater Innovation to Address Environmental Problems.—EPA will maximize the potential to reduce uncertainties in risk assessment, and help to prevent and manage
risk, by using cost-effective approaches such as the placeVerDate Dec 13 2002

and facility-based strategies (e.g., the Community-Based Environmental Protection strategy).
A Credible Deterrent to Pollution and Greater Compliance
With the Law.—EPA will ensure full compliance with laws
intended to protect human health and the environment. The
Agency will use new and innovative approaches of compliance
assistance and compliance incentives as well as traditional
enforcement activities to promote compliance by the regulated
community, set risk-based compliance and enforcement priorities, and strategically plan and target activities to address
environmental problems associated with industry sectors and
communities.
Effective Management.—EPA will improve the quality of
its internal management, contract administration, and fiscal
responsibility efforts. The Agency will invest in its employees
through training, education and implementation of automated
and streamlined human resources processes. The Agency will
focus its contracting efforts on performance-based service contracts instead of the traditional cost-plus, level-of-effort contracting, relying on guidance developed by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. EPA will concentrate on implementation of the best practices identified government-wide by the
General Accounting Office (GAO) for information resources
management and integration of information technology investments. EPA will also provide support for electronic reporting
to reduce the burden to the Agency’s highest-volume submitters.

This appropriation supports core Agency programs and a
number of the Agency’s ten goals.
Clean and Safe Water.—This Agency goal is to ensure people are provided clean and safe water to drink, and to protect
and restore America’s water bodies to improve public health,
enhance water quality, reduce flooding, and provide wildlife
habitat. In support of this goal, EPA will provide funds for
capitalization grants to States for Clean Water State Revolving Funds (SRFs), the purpose of which are to make low
interest loans to communities and grants to Indian Tribes
and Alaska Native Villages to construct wastewater treatment
infrastructure, and fund other projects to enhance water quality. Since 1988, the Federal Government has invested approximately $19.5 billion in grants to help capitalize the 51 SRFs.
With required State match, additional State contribution, and
funds from program leveraging, funds made available for such
loans total approximately $42.4 billion. EPA’s goal is for the
Clean Water SRFs to attain a long-term revolving level of
$2.8 billion annually.
Capitalization grants are also provided for the Drinking
Water SRFs, which make low interest loans to public water
systems and grants to Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages to upgrade drinking water infrastructure to help them
provide safe drinking water. EPA’s goal is for the Drinking
Water SRFs to attain a long-term revolving level of $1.2 billion annually.
Direct grants are also provided to help address the significant water and wastewater infrastructure needs of Alaska
Native Villages and for a direct grant to Puerto Rico for
the design of drinking water infrastructure improvements to
the Metropolitano community water system in San Juan,
Puerto Rico. Upon eventual completion of these infrastructure
improvements in San Juan, another 1.4 million people will
receive drinking water that meets public health standards
for high risk contaminants.
EPA will support its partnerships with States and Tribes
through media-specific and multi-media, and/or Performance
Partnership grants to: (1) increase the number of community
drinking water systems that meet all existing health-based
standards, (2) protect watersheds by reducing point and
nonpoint source pollution, (3) decrease the net loss of wetlands, and (4) address agricultural and urban runoff and
storm water.
Clean Air.—To ensure that every American community has
safe and healthy air to breathe, EPA will provide funds to
States to upgrade and improve air monitoring networks to

obtain better data on emissions of particulate matter, ozone,
and for regional haze programs. The Budget includes an additional $7 million to expand and improve air toxics monitoring
to assess EPA air toxics programs. EPA will offer mediaspecific and multi-media, and/or Performance Partnership
grants to States and Tribes, and technical assistance to aid
in the development of State and Tribal Implementation Plans
to support solutions that address local air needs.
Preventing Pollution and Reducing Risk in Communities,
Homes, Workplaces and Ecosystems.—EPA plans to offer
media-specific and multi-media, and/or Performance Partnership grants to States and Tribes, focusing on pollution prevention, lead, endangered species, worker protection, pesticide
applicator certification and training, source reduction and recycling. Best approaches for encouraging recycling of nonhazardous industrial wastes will also be identified through
work with the State and Tribal partners. The agency intends
to provide assistance to States for the development and implementation of State programs to assess and mitigate radon.
Better Waste Management, Restoration of Contaminated
Waste Sites, and Emergency Response.—To ensure that America’s waste will be stored, treated, and disposed of in ways
that prevent harm to people and to the natural environment,
EPA will work with States, Tribes and local governments
to put environmental protection and decision making in the
hands of those closest to the problems, while maintaining
a Federal leadership role. In addition, EPA will fund
brownfields projects resulting in 1,000 assessments, paving
the way for productive reuse of these properties and bringing
the cumulative number of sites assessed to over 5,000. There
will be direct assistance through media-specific, and multimedia and/or Performance Partnership grants to enable
Tribes to implement hazardous waste programs.
A Credible Deterrent to Pollution and Greater Compliance
With the Law.—To promote compliance with laws intended
to protect human health and the environment, EPA will offer
media specific and multi-media funding to States and Tribes
for compliance assurance activities including compliance assistance and incentives, inspections and enforcement activities.
Reduction of Global and Cross-Border Environmental
Risks.—The Agency will provide direct grant assistance to
address the serious environmental and human health problems associated with untreated and industrial and municipal
sewage on the U.S.-Mexico border. In 2004, a cumulative 990
thousand residents of the U.S.-Mexico border area will be
protected from health risks because of the construction of
adequate water and wastewater sanitation systems since
1994. These funds also support attainment for the Clean and
Safe Water goal. EPA has met its NAFTA commitment to
provide a total of $700 million for drinking water and wastewater infrastructure needs in the area. However, in recognition of the continuing environmental and public health needs
in the area, the Budget continues funding for these activities.
Quality Environmental Information.—EPA plans to provide
$25 million to States to better enable them to integrate their
environmental information systems. The purpose of this support is two-fold: to assist the Agency in managing for results
and to allow States to maintain the necessary presence in
this area.

A special fund was established for the deposit of fee receipts
associated with environmental programs, including motor vehicle engine certifications. Receipts in this special fund will
be appropriated to the Science and Technology account in
2004 to finance the expenses of the programs that generate
the receipts. Contingent appropriations language is being proposed to modify the cap on the allowable fee that can be
charged to recover the costs of EPA’s Premanufacture Notification program, for which EPA will issue a rulemaking. Enactment of this appropriations language and needed authorizing legislation would generate $4 million in receipts in 2004
that would be discretionary under the Budget Enforcement
Act.

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, authorizes appropriations from the general fund to finance activities conducted
through the Hazardous Substance Superfund. The authorization for general fund payments to the Superfund expired in
1995, but the Administration proposes to continue the payment from the general fund at $1,100,000,000 million in 2004.

ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES
Beginning in fiscal year 2004 and thereafter, the Administrator
is authorized to assess fees from any person required to submit data
under section 4 or 5 of the Toxic Substances Control Act without
regard to the dollar limitations established in section 26(b)(1) of the
Act. Such fees shall be calculated based on costs associated with
administering those sections of the Act, and shall be paid at the
time of data submission, unless otherwise specified by the Administrator. The Administrator may take into account the ability to pay
of the person required to submit the data. The Administrator shall
promulgate rules to implement this provision. Such rules may provide
for allocating the fee in any case in which the expenses of data submission under section 4 or 5 are shared. Fees collected under this provision shall be deposited in a special fund in the U.S. Treasury, which
thereafter will be available, subject to appropriation, to carry out
the Agency’s activities for which such fees are collected.
Note.—A regular 2003 appropriation for this account had not been enacted at the time
the budget was prepared; therefore, this account is operating under a continuing resolution
(P.L. 107–229, as amended). The amounts included for 2003 in this budget reflect the
Administration’s 2003 policy proposals.

Fees are paid by industry to offset costs of accelerated
reregistration, expedited processing of pesticides, and establishing tolerances for pesticide chemicals in or on food and
animal feed. Tolerance reassessment activities will in large
part be financed by the tolerance fee, which is authorized
by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. The President’s
Budget includes a proposal to extend through fiscal year 2006

Public Law 103–356, the Government Management and Reform Act of 1994. EPA’s WCF became operational in 1997
and includes two activities: Enterprise Technology Services
Division’s computer operations and Agency postage. The 2004
amount reflects only base resources and may change during
the year as programmatic needs change. The Agency received
permanent authority for the WCF in P.L. 105–65, which
among other things is intended to increase competition for
government administrative services resulting in lower costs
and higher quality.

This appropriation provides funds for the implementation
of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA) including activities under the Working Capital Fund. This appropriation supports core Agency programs and four of the Agency’s ten goals. Specifically in 2004, emphasis will be placed
on the following:
Better Waste Management, Restoration of Contaminated
Waste Sites, and Emergency Response.—EPA expects to complete cleanups at 40 sites and conduct 350 removal actions.
EPA will initiate remedial action at 8 to 15 additional sites
with expanded resources to regions. Through 2002, cleanups
had been completed at 846 sites, and 7,119 removal actions
had been taken. EPA responds to terrorism by cleaning up
contaminated buildings, monitoring ambient conditions
around disaster areas, and removing hazardous materials.
EPA will conduct research to provide improved methods, models and technologies to support the Agency’s objective of reducing or controlling health risks at contaminated sites. EPA
will also work to maximize responsible parties’ participation
in site cleanups while promoting fairness in the enforcement
process, and pursue greater recovery of EPA’s cleanup costs.
EPA will allocate funds from its appropriation to other Federal agencies to carry out the Act.
Quality Environmental Information.—EPA will continue to
inform decision makers and provide access to balanced environmental data. Environmental information will better enable
the public to understand conditions and make knowledgeable
choices about protecting the health and the environment of
local communities. It will lead to creative and sustainable
solutions to environmental problems and opportunities for pollution prevention. Quality environmenal information is crucial
to sound decision making and to establishing public trust
and confidence in those decisions.
A Credible Deterrent to Pollution and Greater Compliance
With the Law.—EPA will investigate and refer for prosecution
criminal and civil violations of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980
(CERCLA).
Effective Management.—EPA will work to ensure fiscal responsibility in support of site cleanups. EPA will continue
to implement performance-based service contracts instead of
the traditional cost-plus, level-of-effort contracts, and will improve the quality and availability of information on the status
and use of resources.

The Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST) Trust
Fund, authorized by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, as amended by the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1990 and the Taxpayer Relief Act of
1997, provides funds for responding to releases from leaking
underground petroleum tanks, including activities under the
Working Capital Fund. The Trust Fund is financed by a 0.1
cent a gallon tax on motor fuels, that will expire after March
31, 2005.
Funds are allocated to the States through cooperative
agreements to clean up those sites posing the greatest threat
to human health and environment. Funds are also used for
grants to non-state entities, including Indian Tribes, under
section 8001 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act.
EPA supports oversight, cleanup and enforcement programs
which are implemented by the States. LUST Trust Fund dollars can be used for State-lead cleanups and for State oversight of responsible party cleanups.
This appropriation supports core Agency programs and two
of the Agency’s ten goals. Specifically in 2004, emphasis will
be placed on the following:
Better Waste Management, Restoration of Contaminated
Waste Sites, and Emergency Response.—To ensure that America’s waste will be stored, treated, and disposed of in ways
that prevent harm to people and to the natural environment,
EPA will support State and Tribal efforts to design and implement risk-based corrective action programs. These programs
will help to reduce the backlog of Underground Storage Tank
(UST) sites with confirmed releases waiting to be addressed,
and to enforce the 1998 UST leak detection and upgrade
standards.
Effective Management.—EPA will support the States’ and
EPA’s efforts to regulate and oversee the cleanup of leaking
underground storage tanks, through a management infrastructure that sets and implements the highest quality standards for effective internal management and fiscal responsibility.
