              DISTRIBUTION OF OTS REGIONAL DIRECTORY

     The  Environmental  Assistance  Division has   developed  the
attached Regional Directory to respond to the increasing need for
thorough,  cooperative interaction  between headquarters  and  the
regions.   The Directory  is divided  into  two sections;  the first
part lists key regional and headquarters staff, and  the second part
contains  helpful  guidance on how best  to communicate  with  the
regions.  We plan to update the Directory annually and welcome your
comments and suggested revisions.

     There were a few, last minute changes to mailing addresses and
telephone numbers that we did not receive in time  to incorporate
in the Directory.  A list of those changes is attached.

     I want  to thank the many people who  reviewed and provided,
valuable comments on  this Directory.   I  encourage  you to contact
the Environmental Assistance  Division  with changes as they occur
throughout the year.

                                 FOREWORD
      We are pleased to provide you with a copy of the Office of Toxic Substances 1990
 Regional Directory. This is the first time we have attempted to compile a comprehensive list
 of regional and headquarters staff involved in, or those who assist with, the implementation of
 regional toxic substances programs. We hope that this Directory will become a useful
 resource for you and plan to update this Directory every six months. Please contact us
 regularly with changes.

      The first part of the Directory lists all major regional and headquarters contacts in the
 toxics program, and the second part contains helpful guidance on how best to communicate
 with the regions. Some of the areas covered include setting up conference calls, mailing
 documents to the regions, and descriptions of pertinent cooperative headquarters/regional
 programs.

      Our main purpose in developing this Directory is to respond to the increasing need for
 thorough, cooperative interaction between headquarters and the regions. With the increased
 transfer of program responsibilities from headquarters to the regions, and, ultimately, to the
 states, it is  critical that we monitor our ability to communicate with the regions and maintain
 effective avenues for continued cooperation.  We consider this Directory a major step in that
•process.

      We welcome your comments and suggestions.

LEAD REGION

Region 7 became the Lead Region for Pesticides and Toxics in FY89 and will finish its two-year
term at the end of FY90. The Lead Region is the main link between headquarters and the
regions.  Primary responsibilities of the Lead Region are polling the regions on major issues,
informing regions of workgroup formations, assisting with selection of regional participants,
and coordinating regional and state input into the development of Agency OPTS Operating
Guidance, the budget, and OPTS policies and guidelines.

 SUB-LEAD REGIONS

 Generally, the sub-lead regions act as a focus of regional involvement in their assigned key
 program area. The sub-lead region gathers and coordinates comments dealing with issues in
 their program area from all regions, with the intent of reaching a consensus. If a consensus is
 not reached, the sub-lead region formulates a regional response citing both majority and
 minority opinions, but reflecting all regional concerns. The sub-lead reports the regional
 comments to the Lead Region and the Lead Region communicates these comments to
 headquarters and the other regions.

 The sub-lead region assignments for toxics are:

             OPTS REGIONAL PROGRAM REVIEWS

      In FY89 OPTS began its first OPTS-wide regional program reviews. Program reviews
were held in all ten regions, some focusing on one particular area in the toxics, pesticides, or
compliance programs, while other reviews were more comprehensive and covered all the
major areas in the individual OPTS programs.

      In FY90, OPTS will hold five comprehensive reviews with those regions who did not
receive comprehensive reviews in FY89 (Regions 3,6,7,8, and 10). The reviews will begin in
late Winter or Spring of 1990 after OPTS finalizes recommendations for the FY90 process.

      In general the process for program reviews is as follows:

      • Regional program review coordinators (there is one for each OPTS office) work with
        the AA's Office and the individual region to schedule particular program reviews

      • The coordinators work with OTS staff and the Regional Branch Chief to finalize the
        Agenda

      • Based on the region's response to self-evaluation questions, each participating Office
        develops a list of issues, forms the basis for discussion during the program review

      • During the review, the program review team leader (rotates from Office to Office)
        coordinates the development of a report that summarizes significant discussions and
        identifies action items

      • At the end of the review, the DAA for OPTS meets with the RA for a "close-out"
        review

      • A program review report is finalized and provided to the region

      • Action items are monitored by individual offices and periodic updates are provided
        to the region

-------
                          REGIONAL ROUTING
      In February, 1988, at the OTS Office Director's request, HAD developed a clearance
process for documents forwarded to the regions for comment or other action (excludes
information documents). The Office Director asked that a clearance system be created to
improve regional communications and to avoid overburdening the regions with different
program deadlines.

      On the following page is the routing form that is to be used when forwarding
documents from headquarters for regional review and comment. Please copy the form as
needed. The form must be filled out (typed) prior to final sign-off and provided to HAD along
with a copy of the document (including draft E-mail requests) to be sent to the regions. After
HAD sign-off, the routing form must be sent along with the document to the regional
recipient.

      Please see the section on "Sending Materials to the Regions" for the quickest way to get
headquarters documents to our field offices.

                        GUIDANCE DOCUMENT
                  SENDING MATERIALS TO THE REGIONS
 I. Purpose

   This Guidance is intended to inform OTS staff of the advantages and disadvantages of
   using various methods of sending materials to the regions, and to set forth guidelines for
   using each.

II. Background

   The regional offices have concerns about OTS communications with them. First,
   they believe that the Electronic Mail system is overused by sending overly lengthy
   material and personal messages via that system. Second, material sent by other means is
   reaching them much later than headquarters thinks; as a result, they do not have
   sufficient time to prepare thoughtful comments or to respond to other HQ requests. And,
   last but not least, some material is misdirected within the region because we do not
   understand how their mail system works.

III. Guidance

   A. Express Mail
      All Express mail goes to the regional offices' mailroom.  Overnight delivery is
      promised.  Since pouch mail also gets to the regional mailrooms on the next day, and
      since Express mail is quite expensive, it's use is not recommended. A single exception
      to this (Region 2) is explained below.

   B. Pouch Mail
      Sending material to the regions by pouch mail is accomplished by addressing an
      envelope in the normal manner and writing POUCH in block letters on the outside of
      the envelope. Pouch mail received in the EPA mailroom by 3:00 p.m. will be delivered
      to the regional mailrooms the next day. Pouch mail is recommended for all materials
      exceeding 25 pages in length, since to fax or E-mail a document of that length may be
      burdensome for both sender and receiver.

      If it is important that some particular person in the region actually receive the material
      the next day, we suggest that you notify them via E-mail that the package is coming,
      that it is important that they get it earlier than normal (and why), and  ask them to
      check with their mailroom.

      The Region 2 OPTS staff is located in Edison, NJ, and the pouch mail goes to New
      York. It will take an extra day to get it to Edison. If time is critical, use Express mail for
      the Region 2 toxics program.

   C. Magnafaxing
      To send Magnafax copies of material to the regions, take a good copy of the material
      and a list of the names and phone numbers of the recipients to the Fax Center in room
      B-100 of the East Tower (in the long corridor connecting the East Tower and the Mall in

-------
  the basement). Also, please number the pages of the material in the lower center of
  each page; when doing so, please note that a cover page you will complete at the Fax
  Center will be page 1 and any list of addressees you prepare would be page 2.

  The Fax Center usually sends lengthy documents overnight; shorter documents
  normally are sent within an hour or two. In the regions, their Fax Centers call the
  recipient within two hours to notify them that they have a message. As a result, this
  is often the fastest way to send medium-length material.
  The normal maximum length of documents the Fax Center will send is 25 pages.
  However, if you have to send longer material, you may call them a day or two ahead
  and, if at all possible, they will work with you. Remember, however, that, if all
  goes well, they can only Fax two pages per minute — and to only one region at a
  time. If, then, you want to send 100 pages to ten regions, it will take over six hours.

  Again, if the materials are time-sensitive, you may wish to send a "notification E-
  mail" or telephone call (preferred) to the recipient to alert them.  For Fax numbers for
  Toxics and Pesticides  staff in regions, see Regional Branch Chiefs mailing list.

D. Electronic Mail
  E-mail is the best way to guarantee that material is received in the OPTS program in
  the regions by the next day.  Every Regional Division Director and Branch Chief has
  an E-mail box. All regional staff (e.g., RACs, Section 313 Coordinators, etc.) can be
  reached at the Branch Chiefs E-mail box.

  EAD has prepared E-mail "keys" for sending material to all ten regions without
  having to enter all ten E-mail box numbers. Those keys are:
  - For the Division Directors — REGTOXDD
  - For the Branch Chiefs (and, hence, any staff person) — REGTOXBC
  Simply enter one or both at the 'To:" prompt.

  E-mail is designed for short  documents only. The ideal length is three pages or fewer,
  with five pages the maximum length recommended. It consumes lots of secretarial
  time in the regions to run copies from E-mail, so they ask that these length limits be
  followed unless some compelling reason dictates otherwise.

  When sending E-mail to the regions, it is very important to enter the name or title of
  the person to whom the material is directed at the "Subject:" prompt, e.g.,
  Subject:  Branch Chiefs-Request for SPMS Reports
  or
  Subject: RACs-URGENT Request for Comments or Draft Guidance

  If you need to know for certain that the regions have received and at least looked at
  the material, enter ".ar" after reading the material into the computer, but before
  entering the ".send" command. If you want your material to move to the top of their
  list of E-mail messages, enter ".express" after reading the material into the computer,
  but before entering the ".send" command. If you wish, both ".ar" and ".express"
  commands may be used.

             HOW TO SET UP A CONFERENCE CALL
                                   f vwvX-v.vJ.vXvX A
When setting up a conference call with the regions, please use the following directions.

      • Should investigate time conflicts with other offices.

      • Find out the number of regional participants and the number of headquarters
        participants.  If the number of headquarters participants cannot be accommodated in
        an office, you need to reserve a conference room with live phone lines.

      • Contact the teleconferencing staff at 382-CONF and reserve the number of lines you
        need to cover the regions and one for yourself. In many instances, it is a good idea to
        reserve more lines than you need for the regions in case others wish to join in at the
        last minute. The conference call staff will give you a "participants" phone number
        that the regions should use to call in and a "leader" phone number for you to use.

      • Next, contact the teleconference equipment office at 382-2626 and reserve phone
        equipment if you do not have access to a speaker phone that you can take to the
        conference call with you.

      • Send an E-mail to the regional participants that provides the agenda, time of the
        conference call, and the participants1 phone number they are to use to connect with
        the conference call. Ask for an acknowledgement that the E-mail has been received.
        It is also recommended that you phone the regions after you have sent the E-mail so
        they will know to be on the lookout for it.

      • Approximately 1 /2 hour before the conference call, pick up the reserved phone
        equipment (a property pass will be issued to you so you can take it to the WIC
        conference rooms, if that is where your meeting is to be held). Instructions for
        setting up the speakerphone are provided in the speakerphone case.

      • Return phone equipment to the teleconference equipment center.

      • Prepare and E-mail to the regions a 1-2 page summary of the call, including key
        deadlines, updates on the status of documents, requests for their input, etc.

      • For regular calls, try to make them at the same time, same day of week.

         TITLE III NETWORK FOR THE STATES (TINS)
      The following lists, State by State, the E-mail box numbers assigned to each State Toxic
Release Inventory Contact

      The purpose of the network is to enhance communication and information sharing
between OPTS/OSWER, Regional Offices, State Title m Contacts, and Headquarters Title m
Programs. We also hope the network will enhance State-to-State communications.

      The network itself is not a bulletin board, but provides its' users access to the Integrated
Risk Information System (IRIS), CHEM file (file of New Jersey Fact Sheets covering the Section
313 Chemicals), the Section 302 Fact Sheet File, and the Title m Bulletin Board.

      At the prompt > Type IRIS
      At the prompt > Type CHEM (NJ and Section 302 Fact Sheets)
      At the prompt > Type TitlelH for the Bulletin Board

      To facilitate regional E-mail communications with the States, we have developed a mail
key that will simultaneously reach all States within that region for each region (Tins.Rl,
Tins.R2, etc.)

      TINS.R1  = Region I
      TINS.R2  = Region H
      TINS.R3  = Region m
      TINS.R4  = Region IV
      T1NS.R5  = Region V
      TINS.R6  = Region VI
      TINS.R7  = Region VH
      T1NS.R8  = Region VTJI
      T1NS.R9  = Region DC
      TINS.R10 = Region X

      EAD's Mailbox is also included in the above mail keys.

      In addition, we have developed a National mailing key, TTNS.ALL, that includes all
the States, OPTS Regions, and the Preparedness Coordinators. The command that enables an
E-mail user to send E-mail messages to all state and regional contacts (plus OPTS and
OSWER) is:

      TINS.A11

      To access the OSWER Bulletin board the command is:
