United States Environmental Protection Agency Center for Environmental Research Information Cincinnati OH 45268 Research and Development EPA-600/D-81-105 Mar./Apr. 1981 v>EPA ORD Publications A nnouncement March/April 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 from 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). Tlie 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: ORD Publications P.
