What We Do



The Environment and Natural Resources Division (ENRD) is responsible for bringing cases against those who violate the nation’s environmental laws as well as defending the federal government in complex civil litigation arising under a broad range of environmental statutes.


The Division is organized into ten sections:

With offices across the United States, the Division is the nation's environmental lawyer, and the largest environmental law firm in the country.

 

The Division is also home to the Department’s Office of Environmental Justice. The Office of Environmental Justice engages all Justice Department bureaus, components and offices in the collective pursuit of environmental justice.
