Hi, you're getting this message because you're subscribed to receive email from EPA.
You may have already read in a previous email, tomorrow is the big day! We’re making a few changes to improve how we send email and how you subscribe or change your email subscription settings. Therefore, we're sending you this message today for two reasons:
First, to indicate we're changing tomorrow.
Second, to let you know that also tomorrow, April 1, we'll send out a general test message. The purpose of the April 1 test message is to help you to make any changes to your email account's inbox spam or junk email filters, if you use spam filters. If you receive the message tomorrow as you have been receiving EPA emails from you, you're all set.
But if you DON'T receive our initial test message tomorrow, please remember to check your spam or junk email filters. Contact your email provider if you need help in adjusting your email filters to allow our emails to come through.
What’s different?
Our Public Affairs Office is moving to a new system that will help us better serve your needs. Some, but not all, of the lists EPA manages will move to the new system. Now you’ll have the option to provide demographic or interest info that will help us better tailor messages to your interests for these lists.
Why are we making changes?
In the new system you'll have the opportunity to change or add your topics of interest.
One important change is that we want to better serve folks in emergency situations. For example, if you lived along the coast and a storm washed ashore, we’d be able to communicate better about where you can get fresh water, or perhaps drop off hazardous waste after flooding. We learned during previous storms that people relied on local information, specific to their needs.
When is it happening?
After today, the email system we use to send emails to you will be different. You may notice some changes in the look of the sign-up form or the emails. But, now you’ll have a place where you can manage any information you choose to share; all in a password protected page.
Great! How do I sign up?
Since you’re already a subscriber, you don’t HAVE to do anything. But if you want to add geographic information or edit your preferences, go to page http://www2.epa.gov/newsroom/email-subscriptions and put in your email address. Then you’ll be taken your profile page where you’ll create a password and can choose what you’d like to receive and any other info you’d like to share. All the topics related to this email subscription change are listed. After you’re done we’ll send a quick validation email. That’s it!
And anytime you want to edit your preferences or opt out, just use that profile page to make changes.
