Agency Snapshot:
Environmental Protection Agency The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) mission is to protect human health and the environment. EPA leads the nation’s environmental science, research, and assessment efforts to develop and enforce regulations, provide financial assistance, sponsor voluntary partnerships and programs, protect and improve air and water quality, and clean up communities. EPA facilities are an integral part of the resources necessary for Programs and Regions to meet their analytical and research requirements. EPA is committed to managing these facilities effectively and to promote space consolidation, energy efficiency, and sustainability initiatives in its own operating practices.
Senior Real Property Officer: Craig Hooks
Agency Real Property Profile
Per the Federal Real Property Profile, EPA uses 13.7 million square feet of space, of which 7.7 million square feet is Federally owned and 6 million square feet is leased. The graph to the right shows the different types of space EPA uses. The "All Others" slice of the graph is made up of numerous minor categories that includes laboratories, hospitals, prisons & detention centers and industrial buildings.
Reduction in Real Property Usage
EPA’s goal for cost savings by the end of the fiscal year 2012 is $10 million. The chart “Progress Towards the Goal” shows what the agency has achieved to date in real property cost savings.
Breakdown in Reduction
EPA’s cost savings will be achieved from managing existing space more efficiently, mostly by consolidating locations and releasing excess leased space. Savings will also be achieved in energy and water conservation.
