Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Ireland
Ireland does not have a separate agency called the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); instead, environmental regulation is managed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of Ireland. Established in 1992, it oversees environmental protection, pollution control, and sustainable development. The EPA monitors air and water quality, manages waste, and enforces environmental laws to safeguard public health and the environment. It provides information, policy advice, and works with different sectors to promote environmentally responsible practices. Its goal is to ensure a clean, safe, and sustainable environment for current and future generations in Ireland.
