Answer:

That's correct! The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 was passed in response to growing concern about the impact of human activities on the environment. The act established a national policy to protect the environment and created the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) to advise the president on environmental matters.
