Introduction
                                                   General
                                                   Information
The task of the U.S. Environmental Protec-
tion Agency (EPA) is to protect the health
and welfare of the American people by
controlling pollution hazards. EPA en-
deavors to abate and control pollution sys-
tematically, by proper integration of a vari-
ety of research, monitoring, standard set-
ting, and enforcement activities. As a com-
plement to its other activities, EPA coor-
dinates and supports research and anti-
pollution activities by State and local gov-
ernments, private and public groups,  in-
dividuals, and educational institutions.
EPA also reinforces efforts among other
Federal agencies with respect to the impact
of their own operations on the environ-
ment, and is specifically charged with mak-
ing public its written comments and
publishing its determinations from the
standpoint of public health or welfare or
environmental quality.  In all, EPA is de-
signed to serve as the public's advocate for
a livable environment.
  EPA is a regulatory agency created
through an executive reorganization plan
devised to consolidate the Federal Gov-
ernment's environmental  regulatory activi-
ties into a single agency. The plan was
sent by the President to Congress on July
9, 1970, and the Agency began operation
on December 2, 1970.
  Organizationally, EPA is headed by an
Administrator, who is supported by a Dep-
uty Administrator; two Associate Adminis-
trators, one for International Activities and
one for Regional Operations; and nine
Assistant Administrators.  The Assistant
Administrators are responsible for Ad-
ministration and Resources Management;
Enforcement and Compliance Monitoring;
Policy, Planning and Evaluation; External
Affairs; Water; Solid Waste and Emergency
Response; Air and Radiation; Pesticides
and Toxic Substances; and Research and
Development. In addition, there are sep-
arate offices for the General Counsel and
the Inspector General.  The Agency also
has several supporting  offices including
Administrative Law Judges, Civil Rights,
Small and Disadvantaged  Business Utiliza-
tion and the Science Advisory Board.  To
insure that EPA is truly responsive to the
American people, it has established a
strong field organization with regional
offices in ten major cities: Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Chicago, Dal-
las, Kansas City, Denver, San Francisco,
and Seattle.  These regional offices are the
"cutting-edge" for the major EPA pro-
grams.
  The Agency's research and development
programs are centered at four environmen-
tal research centers in Las Vegas, Nevada;
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina;
Cincinnati, Ohio; and Corvallis, Oregon.
Each center is the location of one or more
major research laboratories.  In addition,
the Agency operates a number of smaller
research laboratories throughout the  coun-
try.
  The Agency's headquarters is in Wash-
ington, D.C. It is the nerve center of EPA
and exercises management control over the
regional offices, research laboratories, and
other field components of the Agency.
The following is general information only.

Qualifications

Most jobs at EPA are in the competitive
service, which means that applicants must
compete with other candidates and be ev-
aluated by the Office of Personnel Man-
agement (OPM).
  OPM maintains lists of qualified candi-
dates and makes referrals to government
agencies, including EPA. In order to get on
the appropriate lists, contact the nearest
Federal Job Information Center (or State
Job Service Office) to see whether applica-
tions are being accepted in your area for
the kind of work you want. If you are not
sure what kind of work you want, a job in-
formation specialist may be able to suggest
the type of work for which you qualify,
based on your education and experience.
The qualifications information and
application forms you will  need can  be
obtained in person or by mail from the
Federal Job Information Centers. For
a useful guide to Federal employment,
obtain  a copy of the pamphlet, "Working
for the USA," from the Federal Job In-
formation Center of your  local OPM.

                                          OPM maintains Federal Job Information
                                          Centers in several major metropolitan areas
                                          across the country. They are listed under
                                          "U.S. Government" in the white pages of
                                          local telephone directories.


                                          Citizenship

                                          Employment in EPA is restricted by law to
                                          U.S. citizens.

Career  Opportunities
With  EPA
Generally, there is a continuing need for
scientists, toxicologists, engineers, com-
puter specialists and environmental protec-
tion specialists. There is always an urgent
need for engineers, typists, and stenog-
raphers in Washington,  D.C. and most of
our regional offices.
  Frequent changes in program direction
make it difficult to make accurate state-
ments about future vacancies. Neverthe-
less, resignations, transfers, and retire-
ments are just some of the factors which
constantly influence the rate of employee
turnover. Consequently, to find out about
current openings, you should periodically
contact the EPA Personnel Office which
services the installation at which you de-
sire employment.
Cooperative
Education Program

The cooperative education program is de-
signed to provide an alternate work and
study curriculum for college students. Co-
op students are usually enrolled in an aca-
demic area closely related to their work
assignment. When applicable, the work
assignments developed by EPA are
approved for academic credit by the uni-
versity and the student's work supervisor
completes an evaluation which is a factor
in the student's course grade. The posi-
tions are of a non-clerical nature; the level
and salary depend upon the number of
academic credits compiled. Most  co-op
students begin the program in their sopho-
more or junior year and continue until
graduation.
Summer
Employment

Summer employment opportunities exist in
clerical & technical positions, but the num-
ber of positions varies from office to office.

  Apply for summer employment very ear-
ly in the year. Information on eligibility
and application procedures for summer
employment is available from the nearest
Federal Job Information Center or EPA Per-
sonnel Office.


Stay-in-School
Program

The stay-in-school program provides
Federal employment to highly qualified
students who need financial assistance in
order to continue their education. Stay-in-
school  students work a maximum of 20
hours per week during the academic term,
and may work 40 hours per week during
vacation periods. The student positions are
covered by one-year renewable appoint-
ments.


Part-Time and
Temporary Employment

Part-time and temporary positions exist at
most EPA installations. However, oppor-
tunities for such employment vary from in-
stallation to installation. Obtain specific
vacancy information from the appropriate
EPA Personnel Office.
Presidential Management
Intern Program

EPA's program is designed to bring into
the Agency a small number of outstanding
college graduates with potential to become
top level career executives. This program is
highly competitive and the potential for
advancement is excellent.

Like other government agencies, most
salaries in EPA are paid under the "Gener-
al Schedule." The grade level at which an
individual enters a job depends on the
specific position and the individual's quali-
fications. For positions classified in the en-
gineering occupations, grades GS-5
through GS-11, there are special advanced
salary rates. Under the Federal Pay Com-
parability Act, salaries are adjusted an-
nually. Advancement is dependent upon
the level of the position and the quality of
individual performance and cannot be
guaranteed. Specific information on salar-
ies and career progression may be obtained
from EPA Personnel Offices.


Awards

EPA has an incentive award program that
is intended to encourage high productivity
by acknowledging superior performance.
The recognition may be by means of cash
awards or special salary increases for per-
formance, or a cash award for suggestions.
Training Opportunities

EPA considers employee training and de-
velopment to be an essential management
function. Thus, it pursues courses of action
that will improve employee performance of
current duties; develop skills among EPA
employees not available through present
recruitment sources; keep employees
abreast of knowledge and new de-
velopments in their respective fields; instill
in employees the skills, knowledge and
abilities necessary to deal effectively with
current and changing programs, pro-
cedures, technologies, ana mission  require-
ments; and provide opportunities for the
upward mobility of lower-level employees.
                                         Benefits

                                         Most EPA employees are covered by the
                                         Federal Employees' Benefits Program,
                                         which features liberal fringe benefits and
                                         salaries comparable to those in the private
                                         sector.

-------
Annual Leave is granted for vacations and
personal business at the rate of 13 work
days a year during the first 3 years of ser-
vice, 20 days a year after 3 years and 26
days a year after 15 years. Some military
and previous Federal service is counted in
computing years of service. Annual leave
may accumulate to a maximum of 30 days.

Sick Leave is provided to employees as a
salary protection during illness. It accumu-
lates at the rate of 13 work days a year
without limit. Sick leave accrued at the
time of retirement provides service credit
that augments retirement annuities.

Federal employees receive nine (9) Paid
Holidays a year.

Hospitalization is provided through the
Federal Employees Health Benefits Pro-
gram, which helps protect employees and
their families against the costs of illness or
accident. The Federal Government pays
part of the cost through one of several
plans.

Injury Compensation provides substantial
payments for job-connected injuries
through disability payments, indemnities,
medical services and death benefits.

The Retirement Program is financed by
payroll deductions and matching con-
tributions from the Federal Government.  It
provides annuities at retirement, including
provisions for death and disability benefits.

  Additional information on any of these
benefits may be obtained from any of the
EPA Personnel Offices.

Major
EPA  Programs
Research
and Development
 Air
 and Radiation
In order to effectively establish and enforce
environmental standards, a sound scientific
base is required. Information regarding the
impact of pollutants on ecology and on
human health, as well as on the transport
and control of pollutants is necessary.  One
of EPA's principal functions, therefore, is
research. Conducting scientific studies on
the causes and effects of pollution and
techniques of pollution control enables the
Agency to develop solutions for today's
and tomorrow's environmental problems.
  There are fourteen Environmental Re-
search Laboratories located across the
country which are responsible for con-
ducting the majority of EPA's research and
development programs. These laboratories
conduct research which is concentrated in-
to five major programs.  They are Health
Effects; Environmental Processes  and
Effects; Environmental Engineering and
Technology; Monitoring Systems  and Qual-
ity Assurance; and Health and Environ-
mental Assessment.
  Most career possibilities in Research  and
Development are in the  health and en-
vironmental fields. This would include:
chemical and environmental engineers; en-
vironmental scientists; epidemiologists;
geneticists; environmental health  scientists;
pathologists; pharmacologists; toxicologists;
and veterinary and medical officers.
Under the authority of the Clean Air Act,
EPA has made tremendous strides in the
control of air pollution. Our air is appreci-
ably cleaner than it was at EPA's concep-
tion in 1970, and these improvements have
been a factor in the public health.
  EPA has established national ambient air
quality standards specifying the maximum
tolerable levels of the six principal air pol-
lutants. The Agency has also established
and enforces standards for exceptionally
hazardous pollutants, such as beryllium
and mercury, for new sources of pollu-
tants, and for emissions from stationary
and mobile sources. EPA also regulates the
manufacture and sale of fuels or fuel addi-
tives that counteract the effectiveness of
pollution control  devices. Our air  quality
management approach is centered around
State planning, regulation, permitting, and
enforcement and is directed at the attain-
ment and maintenance of national air qual-
ity  standards.
  Additionally, EPA bears responsibility
for  regulation, control, and assessment  of
airborne radioactive emissions. Throughout
history, man has been exposed to cosmic
and other naturally-occurring radiation. Ex-
posure, however, has increased with the
introduction of man-made, low-level radia-
tion sources, including x-rays, radioactive
materials, and electronic devices.
  Health effects which may result from ex-
posure to relatively large doses  of ionizing
radiation are well known and include
leukemia and other types of cancer,  reduc-
tion in fertility, cataracts and other types of
eye damage, acceleration of the aging proc-
ess, and damage to the reproductive cells.
Long-range effects from repeated exposure
to radiation at low levels are yet to be fully
determined. EPA offers technical assistance
to States and agencies having radiation
protection programs and a national sur-
veillance and inspection program for
measuring radiation levels in the environ-
ment.
  Now well into our second decade  of con-
certed Clean Air Act initiatives and having,
in our first decade, made substantial in-
roads in pollution abatement and control,
we  find ourselves on the threshold of a
new era. Today's challenge,  as well as
tomorrow's, is that of developing im-
proved control technology and keener risk
assessment as we continue to discover new
hazardous and toxic pollutants as the prod-
ucts of our advanced technological society.
  To meet this challenge, the Air and
Radiation Program needs career pro-
fessionals such as chemical, environmental,
radiation, and mechanical engineers;
meteorologists; environmental protection
specialists; environmental scientists; and
health physicists.

Solid Waste
and Emergency Response
                                          Water
The United States generates an estimated
150 million metric tons of hazardous in-
dustrial wastes annually, while its citizens
and businesses produce another 130 mil-
lion tons of non-hazardous waste.
  These waste streams pose a variety of
environmental problems from scenic blight
caused by litter to public health hazards
caused by toxic contamination of
groundwater. The hazardous waste man-
agement issue is particularly important,
and has emerged as one of the leading en-
vironmental concerns of the 1980s.
  Today, EPA is committed to protecting
public health and the environment from
the dangers of hazardous wastes. The
Agency addresses the issue from two
approaches: regulating the management of
current  and future hazardous waste
streams, and responding to environmental
contamination caused by past mis-
management of hazardous wastes.
  Under its  regulatory program, EPA has
developed cradle-to-grave rules designed
to manage hazardous wastes from the
points where they are generated to those
where they are ultimately disposed.  Key
elements of the program include the
issuance of permits for hazardous  waste
management facilities and the enforcement
of rules and  permits as they apply to those
who generate, transport, store, treat and
dispose of regulated wastes.
  The Agency's emergency and remedial
response programs are aimed at identifying
sites where hazardous wastes pose threats
to public health and the environment, and
taking steps  to eliminate those threats. The
program consists of two main components:
removal actions designed to stabilize
dangerous sites and minimize immediate
risks; and remedial actions to design and
implement long-term solutions for those
sites deemed to pose the greatest threats to
professional  public health and the environ-
ment.
  A variety of technical professionals in-
cluding environmental scientists; chemists;
chemical, civil, environmental, and mecha-
nical engineers; environmental protection
specialists; biologists; geologists; hydrolo-
gists; and others with technical skills in the
physical and biological sciences are needed
in this Program.
The battle to stem the continuing deteriora-
tion of our fresh water resources is being
fought on many fronts. Our streams and
fresh water lakes, and salty bays and es-
tuaries are swallowing bacteria-laden
human wastes, massive quantities of
organic industrial wastes  and toxic pesti-
cides in increasing quantities. These wastes
may be composed of a variety of pollutants
including toxics, such as polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs), and nutrients, such as
phosphorus.
  The impact of these wastes on our en-
vironment is dependent on the volume
and toxicity of the pollutant discharged.
EPA's mission is to reduce the volume of
pollutants discharged into our Nation's wa-
ters so that public health  and aquatic life
are protected. This involves a wide range
of Agency responsibilities including de-
veloping water quality criteria, setting dis-
charge limitations for municipalities and  in-
dustries, assisting the States in developing
a technically sound approach toward pollu-
tion control, and providing funding assis-
tance to States and localities to ensure that
control activities are adequately funded.
  The Safe Drinking  Water Act of 1974
gave EPA the responsibility of ensuring
that the Nation's drinking waters are free
from contamination which may  pose
threats to  public health, and protecting
underground sources of drinking water
from contamination due to underground
injection practices. In doing this, the Agen-
cy has  established maximum contaminant
levels for certain constituents found in
drinking water and also has established
minimum requirements for underground
injection practices. Reviews of the existing
requirements are mandated and revisions,
as warranted, are made.
  In order to assure safe  drinking water  for
the Nation now and  in the future, much
needs to be done. More research is needed
to shed light on health effects on man of
bacteria, viruses, or chemicals in drinking
water.  New injection technologies need to
be evaluated, the States and water supply
operators and injection well operators need
more training and technical assistance, and
we need to raise the  public consciousness
regarding our Nation's sources and sup-
plies of drinking water.

                                          Pesticides
                                          and Toxic Substances
  Career potential in the Water Program is
available for biologists; chemists; environ-
mental engineers; environmental protection
specialists; environmental scientists; hydro-
logists; geologists; and toxicologists.
The goal of EPA's Pesticides Program is to
provide health and environmental protec-
tion while permitting a steady supply of
pesticide products. EPA is charged with
this responsibility under the Federal In-
secticide,  Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
and portions of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act. The Agency's pesticide
regulation strategy focuses on four broad
program areas: (1) registration of new pro-
ducts; (2)  review  and reregistration of ex-
isting products; (3) enforcement of pesti-
cide use rules; and (4) research and de-
velopment to  support and improve EPA's
ability to evaluate the risks and benefits of
pesticides.
  The tolerance program makes careful re-
views and evaluations of residue chemistry
and toxicology data to ensure that the max-
imum residue levels likely to be found in
foods are  safe for human consumption.
The special registration program issues
permits to allow experimentation with new
products or uses and emergency ex-
emptions  for uses of pesticides not pre-
viously approved, when benefits exceed
the risk.
  Enactment of the Toxic Substances Con-
trol Act (TSCA) of 1976 gave EPA the re-
sponsibility to protect human health and
the environment  by requiring testing and,
when necessary,  use restrictions on chem-
ical substances. This mandate under TSCA
establishes Agency jurisdiction over some
60,000 chemicals currently in commerce
while also requiring review of all new
chemicals before entry into the market-
place.
  The Agency undertakes risk man-
agement actions on numerous chemicals,
including asbestos and polychlorinated
biphenyls (PCBs), currently in one of
several stages of regulatory development.
The toxic substances enforcement  program
inspects and develops cases for the PCB
and asbestos-in-schools rules. EPA is also
initiating a program for coverage of com-
mercial uses of genetically engineered
materials.
  In an effort to further understand and
more accurately estimate the risks posed
from exposure to  new and existing chem-
icals,  EPA is developing exposure
monitoring methods and quality assurance
techniques to generate reliable data. Sim-
ilarly, we are beginning research to assess
areas where epidemiology data can be ap-
plied to measure health effects from chem-
ical exposure, and new research programs
will develop methods to evaluate the risks
associated with bioengineered organisms.
  Careers for biologists; chemical and en-
vironmental engineers; chemists; environ-
mental scientists;  pharmacologists and tox-
icologists are available in this Program.

-------
Enforcement
and Compliance
Management
EPA has regulatory responsibility for es-
tablishing and enforcing environmental
standards in a wide range of areas
affecting the quality of life. Its programs
encompass the prevention and cleanup of
pollution in air and water through the
regulation of pesticides, waste, toxic sub-
stances and radiation. Enforcement aimed
at achieving compliance with  the Agency's
standard-setting activity for each media is a
vital facet of EPA's operations.
  EPA's enforcement philosophy is to en-
courage voluntary compliance by com-
munities and private industry and, as man-
dated by Federal laws, to oversee direct
enforcement activities performed by State
and local governments to meet environ-
mental standards. The Agency initiates en-
forcement actions to protect the public
health if State and local agencies fail to
produce effective  plans, or if they do not
enforce the programs they do develop.
  A national criminal investigation  unit has
been formed to crack down on the  illegal
discharge of wastes into waterways, "mid-
night" dumping of toxic substances, and
the deliberate  destruction or falsification of
vital environmental reports. This new unit
will speed up  the resolution of potential
criminal cases and make better use of crim-
inal sanctions  when they  are warranted.
Willful violators may be subject to im-
prisonment and personally liable for fines.
  Career potential for attorneys; criminal
investigators; and environmental protection
specialists is available in the Enforcement
and Compliance Program.
The management program is responsible
for the overall administrative and planning
activities of the Agency. It develops, in-
itiates, monitors and evaluates EPA pro-
gram operations and objectives; coordin-
ates program plans; and administers the
Agency's resources and administrative sup-
port functions. Headquartered in Washing-
ton, D.C., the program exercises functional
management with respect to all phases of
administration of EPA as a Federal agency,
including finance, program planning, per-
sonnel, contracts, computerized data proc-
essing,  general support services, public
affairs,  Congressional relations, inter-
national activities, civil rights and general
counsel.
   Careers in this area are  extremely lim-
ited, but do include management and pro-
gram analysts; public information spe-
cialists; contract specialists; personnel spe-
cialists; budget analysts; computer spe-
