14682 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No.
55 / Wednesday, March 23, 2005 / Notices
EPA and other federal agencies to
establish and coordinate a system for
exchange among federal, state, and local
authorities of research and development
results respecting toxic chemical
substances and mixtures, including a
system to facilitate and promote the
development of standard data format
and analysis and consistent testing
procedures. Through FOSTTA, the
Chemical Information and Management
Project (CIMP) focuses on EPA’s
chemical program and works to develop
a more coordinated effort involving
federal, state, and tribal agencies. The
Pollution Prevention Project (P2)
promotes the prevention ethic across
society, helping to integrate P2 into
mainstream environmental activities at
the federal level and among the states
and tribes. The Tribal Affairs Project
(TAP) concentrates on chemical and
prevention issues that are most relevant
to the tribes, including lead control and
abatement, tribal traditional/subsistence
lifeways, and hazard communications
and outreach. FOSTTA’s vision is to
focus on major policy-level issues of
importance to states and tribes, recruit
more senior state and tribal leaders,
increase outreach to all 50 states and
some 560 federally recognized tribes,
and vigorously seek ways to engage the
states and tribes in ongoing substantive
discussions on complex and oftentimes
controversial environmental issues.
In January 2002, the Environmental
Council of the States (ECOS), in
cooperation with the National Tribal
Environmental Council (NTEC), was
awarded the new FOSTTA cooperative
agreement. ECOS, NTEC, and EPA’s
Office of Pollution Prevention and
Toxics (OPPT) are co-sponsoring the
meetings. As part of a cooperative
agreement, ECOS and NTEC facilitate
ongoing efforts of the state and tribal
leaders and OPPT to increase
understanding and improve
collaboration on toxic chemicals and
pollution prevention issues, and to
continue a dialogue on how federal
environmental programs can best be
implemented among the states, tribes,
and EPA.
