USD A, EPA agree
, WASHINGTON, D.C. - The
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and the U.S.
Department of Agriculture
have renewed an agreement
to share employees, funds
and facilities to clean up
rural waterways, protect
important farm and forest
lands from development,
create sound pest control
programs and cooperate in
other areas of mutual in
terest.
Agriculture Secretary Bob
Bergland and EPA Ad
ministrator M.
Costle signed a five-year
“memorandum of un
derstanding” to pursue
“common objectives, in
terests and statutory
requirements, and to avoid
duplication of effort.” The
new agreement replaces a
1974 cooperative pact.
“Healthy soil, water and
air are essential to a healthy
American agriculture,” said
Bergland, “so it’s only
natural that we work with
EPA to protect these
resources and to use them in
environmentally acceptable
ways.”
“EPA relies upon USDA’s
experiences with the needs
of farmers to help us make
(^ >>W . " vt Xts
'
on rural program
decisions that benefit them
as well as the public at
large,” Costle said. “The
relationship between the
agencies sometimes has
been stormy in the past, but
Bob Bergland and I have
been working together on
joint problems since our
appointments two years
ago.”
Specifically, the
agreement commits the two
departments to share in
formation, use one another’s
facilities, transfer funds,

The agreement would
allow the creation of joint
“task forces”-on research,
- land use, pest management,
air and water clean-up, solid
waste management, in-
ternational programs,
education and com
munication and federal-state
cooperation.
An annual conference,
chaired by the agency heads,
would be used to monitor
progress under the pact.
