The Mission of the Division of Resource Assessment and Management (DRAM) is to ensure maximum environmental protection through applied research and the effective integration and utilization of agency data. In order to accomplish this mission, we:

• Support quality management of information and research as a department resource;
• Recognize the importance of information which is accessible, retrievable, and useable (reliable and valid); and,
• Seek to improve quality assurance while reducing the process burden on the department and the regulated community.
