1999 Semi-Annual Report of Accomplishments and Priorities

January  - June 1999

Mission: To improve environmental quality in order to protect public health, the welfare of our citizens, and California's natural resources. Cal/EPA will achieve its mission in an equitable, efficient, cost-effective manner.

Introduction

This document reports significant accomplishments of each entity within the Cal/EPA family for the first six months of Governor Gray Davis’ Administration. It also defines goals for the next six months.

The purpose of this document is to ensure that all interested parties - legislators and staff, environmental organizations, media, and industry - have a clear picture of where we have been and where we are going.

Successive reports will be published within thirty days of the end of each six month period so that we may generate a dialogue on the direction Cal/EPA is taking at least twice a year, or more often if necessary.
