Can anyone help me with this? I could make a literal translation but I was wondering if there was an English equivalent of this kind of office.

Office for the Environmental Quality Assurance/Environment(al) Safety Monitoring Unit


Explanation:
Hi exoney,

It does depend on the country as different countries call this unit in different ways. I would translate it like this: Office for the Environment Quality Assurance, but there is also the option Environment Safety Monitoring Unit. These units do have sometimes slightly different roles, in accordance to the scope and their mission assigned.
