This has been a top news for the documents library community this year. "The EPA has begun closing its nationwide network of scientifc librareis. Several libraries have alaready been dismantled, with their contents either destroryed or shipped to repositories where they are uncataloged and inaccessible. Members of Congress have asked the EPA to cease and desist dismantling these libraries" (govdoc-l).
Please call or write EPA Administrator, Stephen Johnson at 202-564-4700 and urge him to immediately halt this action until Congress approves the EPA budget and materials are readily available online. See NY times article: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/08/opinion/08burger.html?_r=1
