Agriculture Environmental Compliance Internship
YOUR ID  Kansas City, KS
Sponsored by Environmental Protection Agency
Description:
The National Agriculture Compliance Assistance Center (Ag Center) was developed by EPA=s Agriculture and Ecosystems Division in the Office of Compliance with the support of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Coordinated from Kansas City, the goal of the Ag Center is to increase the level of environmental compliance by increasing the agricultural community=s understanding of EPA=s requirements and how to meet them. To achieve this goal, the Ag Center provides information to existing suppliers of information for producers of agricultural commodities and their supporting businesses to help them meet these requirements, prevent pollution before it occurs, and reduce costs associated with compliance by identifying flexible, common-sense ways to achieve compliance.

The Ag Center provides the agricultural community with a definitive source for environmental compliance information by producing plain-language, user-friendly materials that are tailored to the needs of the agricultural community and which accurately reflect EPA=s position on compliance. By taking a multi-media, sector-based approach to environmental compliance, EPA seeks to ensure that the agricultural community has a sound understanding of its environmental requirements.

The Ag Center serves the agricultural community as a source for:
! obtaining compliance assistance materials;
! developing compliance assistance materials,
! networking by the agricultural community,
! identifying, in conjunction with the Agriculture Branch in EPA's Office of Compliance, compliance problems, issues, and trends,
! recognizing and addressing compliance needs.

II. OBJECTIVES

The activities funded by this grant will train and develop the capabilities, skills, substantive knowledge and leadership abilities of the ECO Associate who is interested in the environmental field, particularly from an agricultural perspective.

III. SPECIFIC TASKS and EXPECTED RESULTS

The scope of the project includes all EPA requirements impacting agricultural producers. With guidance from and close coordination with the Ag Center, the intern(s) as needed will:

1. Develop plain-language, user-friendly compliance assistance materials that meet audience needs, including handbooks, guides, compliance checklists, fact sheets, kits, audio-visual programs, and other tools that are tailored to the needs of the agricultural community and which accurately reflect EPA=s position on compliance.

2. Develop information and materials on pollution prevention methods and techniques.

3. Design and develop model training packages for the agricultural community and for information providers that can be easily adapted to reflect special requirements of states, tribes, or localities.

4. Assist in support of a communication system including telephone access and an automated fax-back system for access to fact sheets, relevant regulations, compliance assistance and pollution prevention information and materials, and information on Federal/State/technical assistance contacts.

5. Distribute compliance assistance materials, training materials, and other information, as needed.

IV. BENEFITS TO ECO ASSOCIATES

ECO Associates will be exposed to many of the Environmental Protection Agency=s laws and regulations that apply to the agricultural community. The relationship between agriculture and environmental protection is a unique one. These projects provide interns with the most up to date information on the EPA=s compliance position on environmental protection of agricultural lands. ECO associates will be given the responsibility of assisting in a wide variety of activities undertaken by a national compliance assistance center which will assist in their professional development.

V. IMPACT ON PROTECTING AND ENHANCING THE ENVIRONMENT

To assist the agricultural community in their stewardship and compliance efforts, it is essential that easy to understand information be provided on compliance issues, pollution prevention techniques and other related topics. Through these projects, the interns will gain extensive knowledge of these laws and will provide needed material to this regulated community.

Project Description:
An improved understanding of the movement of water and dissolved chemical constituents in the Florida Everglades requires improved methods to quantify hydrologic exchanges between surface water and ground water. The objectives of the project described here are to 1) quantify vertical exchanges of water (also referred to as seepage) between ground water and surface water, 2) use seepage estimates to assist in the development of mass balances for important chemicals such as mercury and nutrients, and 3) relate seepage fluxes to subsurfaces hydrogeologi properties, management of surface-water levels in canals and water conservation areas, and the regional water balance in the northern Everglades.

Mentor:
Judson Harvey is the project chief and mentor (703-648-5876). Located in Reston, VA, he maintains daily communication with project associates in Florida and travels to West Palm Beach approximately 5 times per year.

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center has been awarded a generous grant to fund an innovative research program in the outcomes of subclinical atherosclerosis. This study will focus on electron beam CT, a new modality which provides the earliest known definitive diagnostic demonstration of the presence of coronary atherosclerosis, and in determining the relative importance of this new technique and its appropriate role in early disease detection and patient management. The epidemiologist/biostatistician will play a leading role in this research program, participating in study design, data analysis and data management including the development of the large database which will include clinical, biochemical, and electron beam CT data, as well as data from nuclear cardiology and genetic testing on some patient cohorts. Our research team is comprised of four physician investigators, a research medical physicist, several research scientists, computer programmers and research assistants. The team has published over 200 papers over the last 22 years in peer reviewed journals and is well funded. We have been responsible for the development of a large database dealing with the noninvasive assessment of risk in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease. We have assembled one of the largest databases in the country with approximately 400 variables per patient, including clinical, exercise, nuclear cardiology, and follow-up assessments in approximately 19,000 patients. Additionally, we are collaborating with two other centers with a total database of approximately 50,000 patients who have been followed for at least one year for subsequent cardiac events following testing. The epi/biostat recruit will also work with us in the analysis of this large database to allow the determination of the appropriate cost-effective applications of various kinds of noninvasive testing in coronary artery disease. The applicant should have extensive research experience and be able to plan and conduct a large clinical study. The individual should have a doctoral degree in epidemiology, biostatistics, or a related field. The salary would be competitive with other major institutions. Academic affiliation is encouraged and time for teaching, if desired, would be available.

A post doctoral position is available immediately for the investigation of prion protein expression in yeast. Transmembrane forms of epitope-tagged fusions predominate and the orientation of insertion essentially follows the pattern established in mammalian microsomes. We are investigating the influences on topology of mutations in both charged residues and in disease-associated conformational determinants (e.g., p105L, A117V) adjacent to the conser
