Here in EPA, after about 1980 the predominant entry license was the Tech.
This
was true even before it lost its code test. The reason was 2 meter/440 access,
which Novices didn't have. A prospective ham would see almost every ham with a
2 meter HT or mobile, ask "what license do I need to talk to you guys" and
wind
up with a Tech. Code or no code.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as a government entity, is
not under any regulations of the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). EPA operating on amateur radio bands is a violation of the
Communications Act of 1934.
The regulations covering civil radio and communications in the
United States is contained in Code of Federal Regulations, Title
47. The full-volume set or separate Parts may be ordered from
the United States Government Printing Office (USGPO) in paper
form or downloadable free from
www.gpo.gov
in either text or
scanned from printed form.
There you have it: A simple correction of your erroneous use of a
federal agency acronym. No acrimony, no name calling, the
names that of identification of the correct names and acronyms.
Plus a helpful suggestion for your self-education.
