EPA OPENS PRESIDENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL YOUTH AWARDS COMPETITION

Presidential Environmental Youth Awards recognize individuals or groups who complete an environmental project. This program is open to Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska students through EPA Region 7 in Kansas City, Kan.

The program has two components: The regional certificate program and the regional award winner. Regional certificates are awarded by the regional offices of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. One first place project is selected as the regional award winner by the regional office. The sponsor and winner travel to Washington to receive a Presidential plaque at an award ceremony.

Projects must be postmarked by Friday, July 29, 2005. Information outlining how the program works, how to apply, eligibility and application procedures are available by contacting Denise Morrison at (800) 223-0425 or on the Web at: <https://www.epa.gov/enviroed/awards.html>

The regional award winner will be notified by late fall.
