U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY The Environmental Protection Agency also took over offsite test monitoring in 1970. The Las Vegas facility continued to operate the program in the Nevada area, and the Eastern Environmental Radiation Facility in Montgomery, Alabama, continued to operate all other stations in the United States as part of the EPA's nationwide monitoring program known as the Environmental Radiation Ambient Monitoring System (ERAMS). The files, which begin in 1960, include all data generated by the networks, information on how the networks were established, and memoranda and correspondence pertaining to their operation. The Montgomery facility publishes on a quarterly basis the Environmental Data Report and keeps back issues in its library. The Montgomery laboratory does not include records from the Las Vegas EPA facility.
