Objective
To protect human health and the environment while advancing U.S. national interests through international environmental collaboration. The Office of International and Tribal Affairs (OITA) engages both bilaterally and through multilateral institutions to improve international cooperation to prevent and address the transboundary movement of pollution. OITA will engage with key priority countries to address air pollution that contributes significant pollution to the domestic and international environment. Strengthening environmental protection abroad so that it is on par with practices in the U.S. helps build a level playing field for industry and promotes opportunities for technologies and innovation and the agency’s international programs also play an important role in fulfilling national security and foreign policy objectives. OITA will continue technical and policy assistance for global and regional efforts to address international sources of harmful pollutants. OITA will engage multilaterally and bilaterally to prevent and reduce marine litter, an increasingly prominent global issue that can negatively impact domestic water quality, tourism, industry and public health in the U.S. OITA works with NPMs and Regional Offices to formulate U.S. international policies and to implement EPA’s international programs that provide policy and technical assistance to other countries. OITA will continue to link anticipated and achieved outcomes to the Agency’s Strategic Goals.
Funding Priorities - Fiscal Year 2021: OITA will continue to strengthen its focus on prioritizing, allocating resources, and managing assistance agreements to advance the Agency’s Strategic Goals and international priorities while maximizing limited resources most effectively and efficiently. OITA protects human health and the environment while advancing U.S. national interests through international environmental collaboration. Working with the experts from EPA's other programs and regional offices, other government agencies, and other nations and international organizations, OITA identifies international environmental issues that may adversely impact the United States and helps to design and implement technical and policy options to address them.
