The Council on Environmental Quality formulates and recommends national policies
and initiatives to improve the environment.
The Council on Environmental Quality
(CEQ) was established within the
Executive Off‌ice of the President by the
National Environmental Policy Act of
1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.).
The Environmental Quality Improvement
Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C. 4371 et seq.)
established the Off‌ice of Environmental
Quality (OEQ) to provide professional
and administrative support for the
Council. The Council and OEQ are
collectively referred to as the Council
on Environmental Quality, and the CEQ
Chair, who is appointed by the President
and conf‌irmed by the Senate, serves as
the Director of OEQ.
The Council develops policies
which bring together the Nation’s
social, economic, and environmental
priorities, with the goal of improving
Federal decisionmaking. As required by
NEPA, CEQ evaluates, coordinates, and
mediates Federal activities. It advises and
assists the President on both national
and international environmental policy
matters. CEQ also oversees Federal
agency and department implementation
of NEPA.
