Recognition Programs
Region 10 Champions of Environmental Leadership Recognition Program
Beginning in 2003, EPA Region 10 created a means for federal agencies to celebrate in each others success as well as gain recognition by showing environmental leadership and going ‘beyond compliance’. This program showcases those who have been selected. We applaud the efforts of these agencies and look forward to continuing this effort into the future.
