The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has requested approval from the Office of Management and Budget for a new information collection related to its Environmental Justice Collaborative Problem Solving (EJCPS) and Government to Government (EJG2G) programs. These programs aim to support projects that address environmental and public health challenges by collaborating with community-based organizations and local governments, especially in underserved communities. The EPA plans to collect progress and final reports from grant recipients to evaluate project effectiveness and equity. Public comments on this information collection are open until February 18, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The EPA wants to check how well some programs are helping people with environmental problems by asking for reports. They also want to hear what people think about this plan until February 18, 2025.
