The EPA announced a major staff cut, citing that the agency’s reorganizational moves are
projected to save taxpayers almost three-quarters of a billion dollars. The reduction in force will impact the Office of Research and Development (ORD) and is projected to bring about $748.8 million in savings combined with other organizational shifts, according to the EPA. The agency had over 16,000 employees in January 2025 and is projected to have around 12,500 following retirements and other reductions in force, according to the EPA.
