EEA's Draft Environmental Justice (EJ) Strategy

EEA’s EJ Policy and Executive Order 552 require that EEA agencies develop their own strategies to “proactively promote environmental justice in all neighborhoods in ways that are tailored to their agencies’ mission.” EEA’s EJ Office convened and led the EJ Task Force to develop this draft EJ Strategy. The public comments period on the draft EJ Strategy has been extended to February 17, 2023.
