PLEASE NOTE!
In consideration of the environment and as a cost savings measure,
we will ONLY send course invitations by EMAIL and will NOT
follow-up with a hard copy through the postal
service. This is a change from our past practice of using both methods
to communicate.
PREP uses the following distribution list to email its course announcements and invitation/nomination materials. Since PREP attendance is by invitation only to agencies that possess cooperative agreements with EPA, we do not provide these materials publicly on the web.
Larger agencies may have as many as three (3) contacts listed; smaller agencies may have as many as two (2). It shall be the responsibility of each agency to notify us in the event of a contact or email address change. Email any changes to Suzanne Forsyth, PREP Program Manager at spforsyth@udavis.edu.
