To arrive at this answer, you can eliminate the options that are unrelated to land use or are incorrect. The option about limiting urban sprawl by creating zoning laws is repeated twice, so we can eliminate one of them. The option about limiting international water conflicts is unrelated to land use and can be eliminated. The option about using eminent domain to limit urban traffic congestion is also unrelated to the EPA's role in land use and can be eliminated.
By the process of elimination, we are left with the option that accurately reflects the EPA's role in land use: "It seeks to limit land usage that could cause damage to the natural environment."
