Notes:
The status of the cases on this chart are updated on a regular basis. Additional documents will also be added to the chart on a regular basis.
We assign each case an EPA Complaint Number that reflects the fiscal year in which we received the complaint. For example, we received EPA Complaint Number 01RNO-22-R7 in fiscal year 2022. We started using this naming convention as of October 1, 2015. Therefore, complaints received between January 1, 2014-September 30, 2015 were assigned case numbers reflecting the calendar year in which we received them.
During the time this table covers, the offices who have enforced and ensured compliance with federal civil rights laws which prohibit discrimination by applicants for and recipients of federal financial assistance from EPA are as follows: Office of Civil Rights, January 2014 - December 2016; External Civil Rights Compliance Office, Office of General Counsel. December 2016 - September 2022; Office of External Civil Rights Compliance Office, Office of Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights ,September 2022- Present.
