EPA REGION 3 LAUNCHES ELIZABETH RIVER PRIORITY PROJECT WEBPAGE

EPA Region 3's internet site has launched a Web page dedicated to the Elizabeth River Priority Project whose goal is to revitalize one of the most severely polluted rivers in the nation and protect human health and wildlife. The Web page identifies the projects and objectives to improve the river's water quality (such as reducing toxics and nutrients from storm water runoff); provides information on the various EPA programs coordinated for cleanups, pollution prevention, and wildlife habitat restoration; and will also supply information on the brownfield and superfund redevelopment/reuse programs to restore the river's environment. The Elizabeth River Priority Project webpage can be found at: http://www.epa.gov/region03/elizabethriver
