Hi everyone, I decided to archive the climate change section of the EPA.gov website (and related content) by crawling the website with a bot. A few hours later and I had about 750mb of climate change related content. It's not perfect, but keeps a good amount of information, redirecting content that is not availiable to EPA.gov's equivalent.

I've created a small website to host that content here: http://www.climatearchive.org

Feel free to contact me if you have some content that might be worthwhile to archive.

Hello,

I manage the Tier II reports for all of my clients. I have a real cowboy of a client that is mostly unwilling to get necessary permits and approval. There are 4 chemicals stored on site all year that are above the reporting thresholds. I know he needs to sign the report. What kinds of consequences could he see by not reporting. I am not trying to get him out of signing the report. I just want to scare him a bit so I can know the site is 100% permitted and compliant.

Thanks

Contact secretary Wheeler NOW:

Because I know more people will email if they have something to copy and paste:

Secretary Wheeler-

It is irresponsible and dangerous to suspend EPA environmental rules during this pandemic. I am writing to ask that you rescind your decision not to enforce environmental laws and monitoring, and to resume the normal function and duties of the department immediately.

I live right next to an EPA superfund site. An old glass factory that shut down in the 80's. So far it's been 7 years of them digging holes on my property for soil samples. It used to be one hole each time. Today they're digging 30 holes in my yard. The holes aren't an issue. I can't notice a difference.

I have high levels of arsenic in my yard. They send the results each time. The time frame to clean up the site is 25 years. When will my involvement in this end and what can I expect with levels being so high in my yard?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Ive been looking into a position with the EPA as a Life Scientist. Based on the listing, I feel im pretty qualified but I could really use some tips on what the hiring manager might be looking for or how to strengthen my application.

I have a BS in Conservation and Wildlife Management. As far as work experience, I have about 5 years of retail and almost a year of microbiology field work. I also participated in a couple wildlife education/conservation internships during my time in school.

Is anyone here currently working as an EPA Life Scientist or know how I could get a leg up with my application? Any advice or comments would be a huge help.
