Background: Section 10(a) of the
National Environmental Education Act
of 1990 mandates a National
Environmental Education Foundation.
The Foundation is established in order
to extend the contribution of
environmental education and training to
meeting critical environmental
protection needs, both in this country
and internationally; to facilitate the
cooperation, coordination, and
contribution of public and private
resources to create an environmentally
advanced educational system; and to
foster an open and effective partnership
among Federal, State, and local
government, business, industry,
academic institutions, community-based
environmental groups, and international
organizations.
The Foundation is a charitable and
nonprofit corporation whose income is
exempt from tax, and donations to
which are tax deductible to the same
extent as those organizations listed
pursuant to section 501(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The
Foundation is not an agency or
establishment of the United States. The
purposes of the Foundation are—
(A) subject to the limitation contained
in the final sentence of subsection (d)
herein, to encourage, accept, leverage,
and administer private gifts for the
benefit of, or in connection with, the
environmental education and training
activities and services of the United
States Environmental Protection
Agency;
(B) to conduct such other
environmental education activities as
VerDate Sep<11>2014

will further the development of an
environmentally conscious and
responsible public, a well-trained and
environmentally literate workforce, and
an environmentally advanced
educational system;
(C) to participate with foreign entities
and individuals in the conduct and
coordination of activities that will
further opportunities for environmental
education and training to address
environmental issues and problems
involving the United States and Canada
or Mexico.
The Foundation develops, supports,
and/or operates programs and projects
to educate and train educational and
environmental professionals, and to
assist them in the development and
delivery of environmental education
and training programs and studies.
The Foundation has a governing
Board of Directors (hereafter referred to
in this section as ‘the Board’), which
consists of 13 directors, each of whom
shall be knowledgeable or experienced
in the environment, education and/or
training. The Board oversees the
activities of the Foundation and assures
that the activities of the Foundation are
consistent with the environmental and
education goals and policies of the
Environmental Protection Agency and
with the intents and purposes of the
Act. The membership of the Board, to
the extent practicable, represents
diverse points of view relating to
environmental education and training.
Members of the Board are appointed by
the Administrator of the Environmental
Protection Agency.
Within 90 days of the date of the
enactment of the National
Environmental Education Act, and as
appropriate thereafter, the
Administrator will publish in the
Federal Register an announcement of
appointments of Directors of the Board.
Such appointments become final and
effective 90 days after publication in the
Federal Register. The directors are
appointed for terms of 4 years. The
Administrator shall appoint an
individual to serve as a director in the
event of a vacancy on the Board within
60 days of said vacancy in the manner
in which the original appointment was
made. No individual may serve more
than 2 consecutive terms as a director.
