Subject: [CPEO-MEF] Cut-of Communications
 
to the best of my knowledge, the following is accurate:


Under pressure from Representative Thomas J. Bliley (R-VA), the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has shut down its entire
web site (www.epa.gov), cutting the public off from vast
environmental resources and information.  Representative Bliley
asserts that EPA has not provided adequate computer security to
protect the agency's information.

It is outrageous that government would deny citizens access to
their government.  Our understanding is that this shut down also
affects EPA employees' access to e-mail.

To protest this denial of public access, contact Margaret
Schneider, Acting Deputy Administrator and head of EPA's Office
of Environmental Information at (202) 260-4724 and Rep. Bliley at
(202) 225-2815.
