Areas for Collaboration Development Process Sample Clauses

Areas for Collaboration Development Process. Key Areas for Collaboration (AFCs) between EPA and the states are included in each multi-year PPA. In order to maintain a high level of attention on the new AFCs, and to gain the greatest benefits of a cooperative, problem-solving approach, close communication between both agencies is necessary throughout the Agreement period. Appropriate staff from the two organizations will provide coordinated, narrative updates to senior leadership at least annually to ensure that desired progress is being made on the selected AFCs. At the end of each year, the Areas for Collaboration will be reviewed and amended, as necessary. It should be emphasized that exclusion of a particular issue or program area from the “Areas for Collaboration” section does not indicate a low priority or that significant work is not being accomplished in that area. All core MassDEP and EPA Region 1 services are ongoing and remain essential to protecting the environment and public health in Massachusetts and in New England.

Areas for Collaboration Development Process. Both NHDES and EPANE have broad and challenging missions to help ensure a high quality of life for all in New Hampshire and the New England Region. The programs, laws, rules, and regulations set up to protect the environment and public health, and the grants, loans, and technical assistance provided to the many environmental partners and stakeholders, are all necessary to meet the agencies’ complementary missions. Despite many environmental and public health success stories over the last 50-plus years, much work still remains. This essential core agency work (which is captured in detail within the EPANE P&C List and the NHDES Comprehensive Work Plan) is typically in the form of: • Environmental monitoring and sampling; • Permitting and mitigating environmental impacts; • Training, licensing, and monitoring third-party professionals; • Facility and site inspections/investigations; • Emergency response for floods and hazardous material spills; • Grants and loans; • Education, outreach, technical, permitting and compliance assistance to many constituents; • Technical and policy research; • Legislation and rulemaking; • Administrative and regulatory process improvements; • Special projects and initiatives; and when necessary • Enforcement actions. As has been common practice, at the beginning of each new PPA planning cycle, the NHDES and EPANE Senior Leadership Teams compare notes about the funding, programmatic, and environmental challenges that lie ahead, as well as discuss possible Areas for Collaboration (AFCs) to include in the upcoming Agreement. Potential AFCs are identified directly by senior leadership and are also provided to them by staff for their consideration. The concept of including a small number of AFCs in each multi-year PPA was introduced several PPA planning cycles ago, and this positive practice has continued. The criteria used to select a short-list of specific AFCs for inclusion in a PPA has been refined over time. Areas for Collaboration that meet most or all of the criteria listed below have the best chance of being successfully addressed by both agencies. The following is a list of some of the considerations the “ideal” AFC should address to ensure its success: • A pressing (and/or uniquely complex) environmental challenge. For instance, o A toxic material; o A sector of concern; o A sensitive geographic area; or
