The EPA’s FY 2013 Annual Performance Plan and President’s Budget requests $ billion, approximately $105 million below FY 2012. The Agency recognizes the difficult fiscal situation that the nation is facing, and is making strategic adjustments to sustain necessary and fundamental human health and environmental protection within core resources and programs. In preparing the FY 2013 President’s Budget, we reassessed our priorities and focused on the most critical work of the EPA and our state and tribal partners to maximize the effectiveness of our resources and collaboration. This budget reflects our commitment to finding ways to do our work more.
