“With this increase we will still have a significantly reduced workforce,” he added. “What we hope to do with this thousand employees is replenish the capacity we’ve lost, but also build the capacity that we need for future activities to protect our air, water and land.”
Regan also addressed the budget request’s provisions on environmental justice, which he said “underpins all of our work.”
