The Regional-ORD Community of Science Networking Program (ROCS-Net) is an orientation and networking program that provides an opportunity for staff from EPA  regions, states and tribes to learn more about the work of EPA’s Office of Research and Development (ORD). Selected participants will visit an EPA research facility to discuss collaborative research opportunities, science priorities and cross-cutting issues with EPA scientists. The program includes overviews of EPA research programs, meetings with laboratory scientists, facility tours, research demonstrations and information sharing sessions between participants.
