Support Guidance Revisions to Stop Schools from Being Built Near Toxic Hazards

The Issue


 We hope you or your organization will sign on to a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) providing comments on their School Siting Guidelines and urging them to improve the document so that schools are not sited next to toxic waste sites or major sources of air pollution.  The letter is below.

You can also send EPA comments directly at school_siting@epa.gov  by the deadline of February 18th at 4pm (EST) and feel free to use the letter below in your comments. The entire draft of school siting guidelines can be viewed at http://www.epa.gov/schools/siting/.
