United States EnvironmentaiProtection Agency 901 -B92-002 May 1992 Regon 1 Otha of External Programs EPA The Directory Of Environmental Groups I: ------- Dear Fellow Environmentalist, I am pleased to provide you with an updated issue of The Directory of Environmental Groups. The Directory provides concerned citizens with a comprehensive listing of environmental organizations and government agencies that are involved in environmental and natural resource issues. An ethic of voluntary environmental stewardship has gained momentum among citizens and corporations throughout New England in recent years. By building networks and coordinating our efforts, we can greatly further the task of preserving a healthy environment. It is my hope that this directory is helpful in reaching that goal. Many of you provided assistance in preparing this directory. We are grateful for your help. I would also appreciate your contacting us with any new organizations or correcting what is currently listed so that we may continually update this publication.
