Abstract |
The EPA Science Advisory Board (SAB) reviewed 30 papers by Environmental Protection Agency scientists and recommended that 21 receive Scientific and Technological Achievement Awards (STAA), and that three other papers of notable quality be recognized through some other mechanism. The SAB was pleased that the call for papers was Agency-wide this year, and hopes that other awards programs are used to recognize those papers and scientists of notable quality which do not otherwise meet the requirements of the STAA. Such awards would be for excellence in reviews, data bases, special projects, and interlaboratory comparisons. |
