The Office of Enforcement, Compliance and Environmental Justice (ECEJ) enforces federal environmental law in a variety of ways, including strategic planning and targeting, setting enforcement priorities, developing compliance monitoring programs, undertaking inspection activities, and pursuing appropriate enforcement actions. We work with states and tribes to define oversight roles and promote effective enforcement strategies and engage in various compliance assistance and incentive activities. The ECEJ office also ensures that all segments of the population are provided equal protection under environmental laws and programs, regardless of race, national origin, or income -- a concept we define as environmental justice. Note: if you are looking for legal information that does NOT involve enforcement, please visit the Regional Counsel pages.
