The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) was established by the US Federal Government in 1970 to clean-up environmental damage in the country and to continually ensure a safe and healthy environment for citizens. The EPA oversees research and monitoring, develops and enforces regulations, provides financial assistance to states, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations, promotes environmental education, and publishes information.
