Description:
To enhance and maintain a clean environment while imporiving the nation's productivity, the U.S. EPA is joining with private industry and academia to seek new, cost-effective technologies to prevent and control environmental pollution. Both the U.S. government and the private sector can play key roles in restoring and protecting the environment, as well as fostering effective competitive markets for U.S. business. EPA Administrator William K. Reilly captured the essence of EPA's FTTA effort when he stated "The international market for environmental goods and services is more than $200 billion and growing at 5 percent a year. For smart U.S. companies, our federal laboratories can be a source of innovative technologies, giving them new opportunities and a competitive edge in the global marketplace."
