Mick Cornett: Great value in the EPA's "brownfields" cleaning up program

Cornett said the agency's [EPA's}"brownfields" program, which helps cities, states and Indian tribes clean up abandoned sites or community eyesores to prepare for redevelopment, has "made a remarkable difference in Oklahoma City." "We used brownfields money to help close that gap. We had an environmental site along our river--which 60 years ago had been a city dump--and we were able to address the environmental needs there, and Dell Computers has built a campus with 1,500 employees," he said.

Drew Edmondson: As AG, created the Environmental Protection Unit

In 1996, Edmondson created the Environmental Protection Unit to provide agencies with specialized legal advice and representation on environmental issues. Since then the unit has filed lawsuits and drafted numerous AG opinions on environmental issues, including biomedical waste, discarded tires, animal-feeding operations, groundwater use, county zoning authority, solid waste and wildlife issues.
