In the context of the program, EPA has given new an exclusive definition of the terms output and outcome. An output is an activity, effort, and/or associated work product that is closely related to an environmental goal or objective that will be produced or provided over a specific period of time or by a specific date.
On the other hand, an outcome refers to an appropriate environmental result, effect or consequence that will occur from carrying out an environmental program or activity that is closely associated to an environmental or programmatic goal or objective.
