(07/31/03) EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance is inviting the public to submit ideas to EPA for potential Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEPs). SEPs are environmentally beneficial projects that are voluntarily undertaken by a defendant in settlement of an enforcement action with the EPA. Inclusion of a potential project in the SEP Idea Library does not mean that it will automatically be included in a particular settlement. The SEP Idea Library will be piloted for one year, beginning in August 2003. Information on how to submit ideas for potential projects is available online at: www.epa.gov/compliance/civil/programs/seps/index.html.
