Forward from the Regional Administrator:
Grass roots groups sparked environmental protection well before
the I .S. Congress created the Environmental Protection Agency. No
other federal agency owes so much to citizen activists as do we.
Ens.ironmentalists and their nonprofit organizations committed to
a CaUSe are a powerful influence on federal, state and local
gu rnments, industrial firms, farmers and mining operations.
The nation owes the organized environmentalists a deep debt of
gratitude. One wa that we at EPA can both express our
appre iatiorI and help New England environmentalists to be even
nore effective is to gather all the names and addresses of these
rgariizations into a book. This book should help networking, and
networking will permit you to draw upon one another for
:nformation and cooperation.
The Directory of Environmental Groups in New England includes
federal agencies with environmental responsibilities, New England
state environmental, agencies, regional voluntary organizations
and finally state-by-state listings. An index is provided for
easy reference.
EPA published the first New England Directory in 1972, and has
produced approximately 10 updated versions since then. In this
issue, we have introduced a new section that reflects changes in
environmental protection. The new section contains hotline phone
numbers of state agencies who handle emergency spills of oil,
cherncials and hazardous materials.
My thanks to each of the listed organizations for your
cooperation with the editor of the Directory, Evelyn Sullivan,
who has assembled all the entries for the 1988 edition. I hope
that you will continue to assist Evelyn by sending her changes of
names and addresses and the names of new organizations as they
are established. We want to keep this Directory as current as
possible.
You who work so very hard to help protect our environment have
earned the thanks of all at EPA. We wish you all the best as we
work toward our common cause. I hope the Directory proves
useful . Please keep in touch.
