Access EPA Facilities
Prior to accessing EPA facilities, all individuals should complete a self-assessment.
All EPA locations have non-medical disposable masks available to any person who is entering an EPA facility, including visitors who may have forgotten theirs. Contractors are responsible for ensuring that their onsite contract employees comply with all of EPA’s health and safety requirements, including the mask requirement in areas of HIGH Community Levels, while working at EPA facilities and sites.
Individuals may be asked to lower their masks briefly for identification purposes.
Self Assessment
In order to maintain a safe workplace environment, employees and visitors must perform the self-assessment prior to entering an EPA facility.
