June 3, 2005—The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking input on the effectiveness of the Compliance Assistance Centers created through EPA-sponsored partnerships with industry, academic institutions, environmental groups, and other agencies.
The centers help businesses, local governments, and federal agencies understand federal environmental requirements and save money through pollution prevention techniques. Through Web sites, telephone assistance lines, fax-back systems, and e-mail discussion groups, the centers help address real-world issues.
Once a year, the centers survey their users and first-time visitors on how well they are meeting their goals. The results of the surveys help the centers provide resources for environmental compliance. To take the three-minute survey and learn about incentives to respond, or to learn more about Assistance Centers, visit online.
