Water, Air & Environmental Justice
EPA's Felicia Marcus shares information while building relationships with local residents to foster meaningful community participation.
Sharing information and building relationships with local residents to foster meaningful community participation, collaborating with local governments to empower municipal projects, encouraging flexibility with industry to allow for win-win outcomes--this doesn't sound much like a federal bureaucracy. But under the leadership of Felicia Marcus, Region 9 EPA Administrator, it is. Metro Investment Report talked with Marcus about the EPA's role in everything from the CALFED water plan to brownfields development to environmental justice to the Belmont Learning Center disaster. Felicia even paints a winning environmental policy stance for any L.A. mayoral candidate keen enough to pay attention.
