What is the role of the Environmental Protection Agency in regulation?

To enforce laws
To make rules
To interpret laws
To fund research

The correct answer is: To make rules

The role of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is to develop and enforce regulations that protect the environment and public health. While option A may seem correct, the primary responsibility of the EPA is to create and implement regulations, not just enforce existing laws. Option C is also incorrect because the EPA is not responsible for interpreting laws, but rather for creating and enforcing regulations based on those laws. Option D is incorrect because funding research is not the main role of the EPA, although they may use research to inform their rule-making process. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as the EPA's main role is to create and implement regulations aimed at protecting the environment.
