Abstract |
EPA's Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) works to ensure that chemicals manufactured, imported or used in the United States do not pose unreasonable risks to health or the environment. It also strives to promote the prevention of pollution before it occurs and to improve environmental stewardship practices in business and government operations. This report describes OPPT's progress in accomplishing these goals, which are key components of EPA's overall 'Strategic Plan.' Indeed, every accomplishment is a part of a larger effort to meet one of the agency's specific strategic objectives. |
