Career Building: What is the EPA?
Once one of the most polluted rivers in the U.S., the Cuyahoga River in Ohio caught fire 13 times in one century due to the lack of sewer and waste disposal regulation. A 1969 fire over five stories high inspired national attention, the passage of the Clean Water Act, and the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The EPA consolidated federal research, monitoring, and enforcement in one agency to protect human health and the air, water, and land. The EPA is authorized to set national air quality, auto emission, and anti-pollution standards.
Using the best available scientific information, the EPA reduces environmental risks and protects the public and the environment. To make this mission a reality, the EPA:

Under the Marine Protection, Research, and Sanctuaries Act (MPRSA), EPA is responsible for designating and managing ocean disposal sites. These ocean disposal sites are primarily used for the disposal of dredged material and support the maintenance of critical ports and harbors nation-wide.
As an essential component of management, EPA Chief Scientists monitor the environment within and around each ocean disposal site to verify that permitted disposal does not cause unanticipated or significant adverse effects on human health, the marine environment, and other uses of the ocean, and that all the terms of MPRSA permits are met.

Criminal enforcement is EPA's strongest sanction and its criminal enforcement office investigates and helps the U.S. Department of Justice prosecute violators who, as a result of their intentional disregard of the law or their criminal negligence, seriously threaten public health and the environment.
The program investigates alleged crimes under all statutes administered by EPA, as well as violations of the general U.S. Criminal Code, such as fraud, conspiracy or lying to law enforcement officials, which are often associated with federal environmental crimes.

The EPA consolidated federal research, monitoring, and enforcement in one agency to protect human health and the air, water, and land. The EPA is authorized to set national air quality, auto emission, and anti-pollution standards.
Using the best available scientific information, the EPA reduces environmental risks and protects the public and the environment. To make this mission a reality, the EPA:
• Develops and enforces environmental regulations
• Gives grants to environmental programs, non-profits, and educational institutions
• Identifies and tries to solve environmental problems
• Works with businesses, non-profits, and state and local governments through dozens of partnerships
• Helps the public understand environmental issues
Over the past 40 years, some of the EPA’s accomplishments include:
• Regulating auto emissions
• Banning the use of DDT
• Cleaning up toxic waste
• Protecting the ozone layer
• Increasing recycling
• Revitalizing inner-city brownfields
Protecting the environment from pollution is critical for the survival of our species and our planet. Environmental specialists are on the front lines of this important fight. They create and implement programs that promote environmental and workforce safety.

In this capacity, she often worked alongside EPA special agents, an involvement which sparked her interest in environmental crime investigation and ultimately led to her becoming a special agent herself.
EPA's special agents are responsible for investigating allegations of environmental crime and assisting the Department of Justice in building and prosecuting successful criminal cases involving the most egregious violations of environmental statutes, thus deterring future crimes. They are federal law enforcement officers with complete statutory authority to conduct investigations, carry firearms, make arrests for any federal crime, and execute and serve warrants.

EPA Chief Scientists are responsible for planning EPA oceanographic surveys, collecting high-quality and consistent data, and maintaining the health and safety of the EPA personnel on board survey vessels. The information collected during these surveys ensures EPA will protect the marine environment and human health while maintaining the vital functions of our ports and harbors.

The program investigates alleged crimes under all statutes administered by EPA, as well as violations of the general U.S. Criminal Code, such as fraud, conspiracy or lying to law enforcement officials, which are often associated with federal environmental crimes.
Potential criminal violations are investigated by highly trained special agents, working in over 40 field offices across the country, who are fully-authorized federal law enforcement officers, like their counterparts in the FBI or the U.S. Secret Service. They are supported by attorneys who are national experts in environmental criminal law and by expert forensic scientists and technicians who conduct complex and comprehensive analysis of pollution releases needed to link violators to their environmental crimes "beyond a reasonable doubt."
