U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 3 is once again conducting its external awards program to recognize individuals and organizations outside of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency who are making significant contributions to improving the environment in the mid-Atlantic region. Nominations are due May 29.
An EPA panel of judges will select award winners in the following categories: Non-Profit or Volunteer Organization, Business and Industry and State, Local or Other Federal Government Agency.
Selections will be based on the following criteria:
-- Significant sustained, measurable, and replicable environmental results for a clearly defined environmental issue in the region (Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia or West Virginia). These environmental results should relate to reducing pollution and/or protecting public health and the environment.
-- Innovative ideas, approaches, techniques, and/or technologies.
-- Demonstrated leadership and/or outreach to others.
Awards will be presented during a special recognition ceremony on September 16 at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia. Nominations may be submitted online.
