1970ref. 76761970. Nixon Richard. Award of Excellence for Environmental Protection Services circa 1970s is an unissued White House certificate created to recognize achievement in environmental protection during an era of expanding federal involvement in pollution control and conservation. The document belongs to the Nixon administration's broader program of publicly acknowledging environmental work after the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970. It supports study of presidential messaging federal environmental policy and the use of ceremonial honors to encourage public participation in conservation. Nixon announced an Environmental Merit Awards Program in 1971 and Executive Order 11667 established an advisory committee in 1972 to select individuals and groups for recognition on behalf of the president. The President of the United States Presents This Award of Excellence. White House Washington D.C.: Executive Office of the President circa 1970s. Single-sheet certificate; dimensions not supplied. A large presidential eagle seal printed in color dominates the formal design. The text reads: "The President of the United States presents this Award of Excellence to blank for outstanding achievement in environmental protection services." A stamped or facsimile signature reading "Richard Nixon" appears below. The recipient field remains blank confirming that the certificate was never personalized or formally issued. It is unsigned in manuscript and should not be described as an autograph. The certificate places environmental protection within the ceremonial vocabulary of presidential service showing how the executive branch framed conservation as an activity deserving national recognition. Its wording parallels the administration's Environmental Merit Awards initiative which involved schools local committees federal officials and the EPA in recognizing environmental accomplishments although a direct connection between this particular certificate and that specific program cannot be established from the supplied evidence. No evident staining creasing tears or edge wear noted; near fine. An unused example of Nixon-era White House environmental recognition distinguished by its color presidential seal and intact blank presentation field. unknown books
