Chemical industry groups have long complained of a backlog in approvals, which they say is stifling innovation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At an all-hands staff meeting late Friday, Nancy Beck, a former lobbyist at the American Chemistry Council who now heads the E.P.A.\u2019s chemicals office, told stunned scientists that it was \u201ca very exciting time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI encourage everyone throughout the agency to apply for these positions,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Trump administration officials indicated that more changes were in store for the research office. Scientists who were on the call said they were left with the impression that if they did not move into one of the new areas, their current jobs might be eliminated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Also on Friday, the E.P.A. extended a deadline for accepting a deferred resignation offer to May 9.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis feels like the Hunger Games,\u201d said one employee of the research office who spoke on condition of anonymity, for fear of retaliation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Other scientists will move into the administrator\u2019s office as part of a new Office of Applied Science and Environmental Solutions, which Mr. Zeldin said would \u201cput science at the forefront of the agency\u2019s rule making.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Democrats and environmental activists warned the move would politicize scientific research.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis so-called \u2018reorganization\u2019 is a thinly veiled attempt to extinguish the agency\u2019s world-renowned scientific expertise by shuffling scientists to process chemical reviews for industry,\u201d Representative Chellie Pingree, Democrat of Maine, said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The research office \u201cis intentionally separate from E.P.A.\u2019s policy offices, ensuring it produces unbiased studies,\u201d said Chitra Kumar, the managing director of the climate program at the Union of Concerned Scientists, an advocacy group. Moving the scientists into policy offices \u201ccould subject those experts to political influence, particularly in this administration,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The changes come amid a major deregulatory drive at the agency. The E.P.A. under Mr. Zeldin is <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/12\/climate\/epa-zeldin-rollbacks-pollution.html\" title=\"\">revising or repealing more than 30 regulations<\/a> aimed at protecting the air, water and climate.
