Tribal EPA's purpose is to ensure that:
- All Americans are protected from significant risks to human health and the
environment where they live, learn and work.
- National and local efforts to reduce environmental risk are based on the
best available scientific information.
- Federal and Tribal laws protecting human health and the environment are
enforced fairly and effectively.
- Environmental protection is an integral consideration in U.S. policies
concerning natural resources, human health, economic growth, energy,
transportation, agriculture, industry, and international trade, and these
factors are similarly considered in establishing environmental policy.
- All parts of society—communities, individuals, business, state and local
governments, tribal governments�have access to accurate information
sufficient to effectively participate in managing human health and
environmental risks.
- Environmental protection contributes to making our communities and
ecosystems diverse, sustainable and economically productive.
