An End of Year report is used by UDEQ and EPA to jointly evaluate the partnership's success in achieving the environmental program goals,measures,and commitments contained in this agreement and to plan for next year's PPA jointly.The evaluation seeks to determine whether the work undertaken in the PPA 1.Addresses the stated strategic priorities and goals; 2.Achieves administrative cost savings; 3.Where appropriate,it improves environmental results;and 4.Improves EPA/UDEQ working relationships. The End of Year Report documents the accomplishments of the Utah Department of Environmental Quality under the FFY 2024 Performance Partnership Agreement and Performance Partnership Grant. Utah DEQ appreciates the flexibility the PPA and PPG allow in meeting critical environmental goals and the burden reduction oered by a single end of year report. We remain commied to the PPA as an eective mechanism for "seing out jointly-developed priorities and protection strategies”and "working together to address priority needs.”1 1 hps://www.epa.gov/ocir/national-environmental-performance-partnership-system-nepps##Per%20Par%20Agreements FY 2024 PERFORMANCEPARTNERSHIPAGREEMENT •DECEMBER 2024 3 of 5 UDEQ Goals and Objectives Executive Director’s Oice -Business Assistance End of Year workplan components are available in Appendix A.
