Announcement
May 1981
The Environmental Protection
Agency's Office of Research and
Development announces the
availability of printed publications
on a wide range of environmental
topics. As a part of EPA's efforts to
make available better information
for environmental decision making,
we are offering the following types
of publications at no charge.
Project Summaries are short
synopses of key findings of project
reports. These reports present the
results of recently completed
research, development and
engineering work. The summaries
convey the essence of a project in
terms comprehensible to the
technical community at large. The
complete reports are available only
fr6m the National Technical
Information Service.
Research Summaries are issue-
or problem-oriented summaries of
EPA's research activities in a
particular area. They include
distilled descriptions of all of our
major research projects which
address the subject of the booklet.
Decision Series documents are
carefully crafted to address major
environmental issues and
concerns. They present a concise
and clear statement of the scientific
facts as known to major experts in
the research community. These
documents are aimed at decision
makers involved in the formulation
of environmental research policies.
Program Summaries and Plans
go into significantly more
programmatic detail than the
above-mentioned reports and are
intended to convey both the
substance and the organizational
structure of the research program.
They are designed to satisfy those
whose interest in our program
requires a greater level of detail.
Other Publications of EPA's
research program include a
Program Guide (describing our
major research areas and the
extramural resources associated
with each), the Research Highlights
(describing our major accomplish-
ments of the preceding year), and
the Research Outlook (EPA's five-
year research strategy).
The ORD Publications Announce-
ment is published monthly to
provide interested parties with
access to the broad range of
currently available documents
produced by the Office of Research
and Development. It will be mailed
monthly upon request to individuals
who may wish to order this
material. Orders are filled until the
supply of a particular report is
exhausted.
The following pages list titles of
publications that are available in
each category; Project Summaries
are subdivided by subject area.
Publications announced for the first
time are displayed in bold type. To
order any publication, circle the
corresponding order number on the
order form at the back of this
Announcement and return the
entire back page, with your mailing
label attached, to:
