President Obama Issues Executive Order Setting Sustainability Goals for Federal Agencies
On October 5, 2009, President Obama today issued Executive Order "Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy, and Economic Performance", which sets sustainability goals for Federal agencies and focuses on making improvements in their environmental, energy and economic performance. The EO requires Federal agencies to set a 2020 greenhouse gas emissions reduction target within 90 days; increase energy efficiency; reduce fleet petroleum consumption; conserve water; reduce waste; support sustainable communities; and leverage Federal purchasing power to promote environmentally-responsible products and technologies.

Region I Federal Facility Program Goal
The primary goal of EPA's Federal Facility Enforcement and Assistance/Pollution
Prevention Program is to ensure that all Federal Agencies comply
with all applicable Federal, State, and local environmental laws/regulations
and that Federal compliance rates meet or surpass the rest of the
regulated community. EPA New England is focused on ensuring long-term
environmental compliance and will work with Federal Agencies in
both the enforcement and assistance capacities to accomplish this
goal.
