Environmental Justice Program
The Environmental Justice program, established by Presidential Executive Order 12898, requires Federal agencies (including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service), to ensure that all environmental policies and the disposal of toxic waste do not adversely impact minority and low-income communities. The common concern is that these communities are exposed to unfair levels of environmental risk arising from multiple sources, often coupled with inadequate government response.
