EPA Regional and State Offices
Complementing the ongoing EPA Headquarters policy development effort, EPA maintains ten Regional Offices to implement federal environmental programs around the country. These Regional Offices cooperate with federal, state, interstate and local agencies, as well as with industry, academic institutions and other private groups, to ensure that Regional needs are addressed and that federal environmental laws are upheld. Each Regional Office has designated Regional Asbestos Coordinators and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) Asbestos Coordinators to oversee the Asbestos efforts within the Region.
EPA also provides a list of State Asbestos Contacts for the convenience of our users. This state list will be updated on an annual basis only.
