SAN FRANCISCO During the agency's third annual Environmental Awards 
Ceremony in San Francisco today, U.S. EPA Regional Administrator Wayne 
Nastri presented plaques to 31 western organizations and individuals in 
recognition of their efforts to protect and preserve the environment in 
the year 2000.

"Today's honorees have applied creativity, teamwork and leadership in 
addressing many of the west's most pressing and complex environmental 
problems," Nastri said. "Thanks to the efforts of these individuals, our 
air, water and land will be cleaner and safer for generations to come. 
The winners set an example for all of us to follow."

The EPA Region 9 Environmental Awards program acknowledges commitment 
and significant contributions to the environment in California, Arizona,
