USEPA's National Homeland Security Research Center Ready to Provide Assistance

This article discusses the National Homeland Security Research Center, created in September 2002 by the US Environmental Protection Agency to manage, coordinate, and support a variety of homeland security research and technical assistance efforts. Research at the center is focused on protecting the nation's buildings (the Safe Buildings Program), protecting the nation's water supplies and systems (the Water Security Program), and improving risk assessment techniques (the Rapid Risk Assessment Program). These three programs are designed to address chemical, biological, and ‐ where water is concerned ‐ radiological threats and deliberate attacks including infrastructure protection.
