Description:
As part of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and Development, the National Risk Management Research Laboratory (NRMRL) conducts research into ways to prevent and reduce pollution risks that threaten human health and the environment. The laboratory investigates methods to prevent and control pollution to air, land, and water, and to restore ecosystems. The goals of this research are to: (1) develop and promote technologies that protect and improve the environment; (2) develop scientific and engineering information to support regulatory and policy decisions; and (3) provide technical support and information transfer to ensure implementation of environmental regulations and strategies at the national and community levels. In addition, NRMRL collaborates with both public and private sector partners to foster technologies that reduce the cost of compliance and to anticipate emerging problems. NRMRL has research facilities at its headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio, and at its locations in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina; Ada, Oklahoma; and Edison, New Jersey. NRMRL's Technology Coordination Staff, based in Washington, D.C., manages the Environmental Technology Verification Program. NRMRL's staff includes several hundred scientists and engineers devoted to solving a wide range of environmental problems.
