"EPA has a vital role in homeland security. The Agency has been called upon to respond to five major disasters and nationally significant incidents in the past seven years. In the coming years, EPA’s homeland security roles and responsibilities will continue to be of the utmost importance as the Agency enhances its preparedness."
The EPA’s Office of Homeland Security developed the Homeland Security Portal to assist the federal, state, local, and tribal governments, emergency management officials, and the public in locating homeland security-related information within EPA.
