SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 9 (a) and (b) of the National
Environmental Education Act of 1990
(Pub. L. 101–619) mandates a National
Environmental Education Advisory
Council. The Advisory Council provides
the Administrator with advice and
recommendations on EPA
implementation of the National
Environmental Education Act. In
general, the Act is designed to increase
public understanding of environmental
issues and problems, and to improve the
training of environmental education
professionals. EPA will achieve these
goals, in part, by awarding grants and/
or establishing partnerships with other
Federal agencies, state and local
education and natural resource
agencies, not-for-profit organizations,
universities, and the private sector to
encourage and support environmental
education and training programs. The
Council is also responsible for preparing
a national biennial report to Congress
that will describe and assess the extent
and quality of environmental education,
discuss major obstacles to improving
environmental education, and identify
the skill, education, and training needs
for environmental professionals.
The National Environmental
Education Act requires that the Council
be comprised of eleven (11) members
appointed by the Administrator of EPA.
Members represent a balance of
perspectives, professional
qualifications, and experience. The Act
specifies that members must represent
the following sectors: primary and
secondary education (one of whom shall
be a classroom teacher)—two members;
colleges and universities—two
members; business and industry-two
members; non profit organizations
involved in environmental education—
two members; state departments of
education and natural resources—one
member each; senior Americans-one
member. Members are chosen to
represent various geographic regions of
the country, and the Council strives for
a diverse representation. The
professional backgrounds of Council
members should include education,
science, policy, or other appropriate
disciplines. Each member of the Council
shall hold office for a one (1) to three
(3) year period. Members are expected
