Q. I am working on a project and researching the loss of data on government websites, and I was hoping to get help finding data about this loss of access, particulalry health and science data, like from the EPA.

There are libraries compiling information on disappearing federal data online as well as several projects and organizations working to save data being removed from federal websites. Some of the following may be helpful:
