No stranger to the EPA, Lloyd has been an integral part of the agency since 1991, where he was Assistant General Counsel for the Claims and Property Law division. His office falls within the larger Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OWSER). Lloyd explains that his office has multiple roles. One is to help manage the national brownfield program.

A property located on a bank of the East River and in a densely developed residential and commercial area, had its work cut out for it from an environmental remediation standpoint. The mission was to clean up the land and ultimately make one puzzle piece to a larger urban revitalization project that would be redeveloped as a public library and park ranger station.
