Community-Based Environmental Protection Sample Clauses

Community-Based Environmental Protection. ‌ CDPHE and EPA Region 8 offices will be working to encourage community-based programs along with effective partnerships in several areas throughout Colorado. The community-based environmental protection concept promotes a “place-driven approach” rather than a “program-driven approach”. In addition, CDPHE will continue its commitment to community preservation. The divisions of the Office of Environmental Programs will provide a comprehensive array of resources for communities to access and utilize. Such examples as Brownfields, grants to communities for water treatment facilities, pollution prevention grants, supplement environmental projects and air program grants will assist communities in meeting capacity, infrastructure and data needs. As CDPHE data capabilities expand, CDPHE will assist communities to better understand and respond to community problems and to assist in helping communities define their vision of a sustainable quality of life.
