Chapters
Sort Indicators by: Chapter | Alphabetically | Newest Releases
These questions and associated indicators, grouped by topical area, will be the foundation for EPA's Report on the Environment (ROE). This report is designed to be read linearly, starting with the Air chapter. However, interested parties can sort the topics in a variety of ways, by Chapter, Alphabetically, or showing the Newest Releases. For browsing by chapter (default) click the arrows or tabs to see chapter titles, and then click chapters to see indicators.
