| Project Description |
The Massachusetts Environmental Insurance Incentives Program was created in the spring of 2002 from an agreement between OTA and four leading environmental insurance companies. This voluntary program is aimed at rewarding Massachusetts Toxics Use Reduction Act (TURA) filers by linking sound environmental performance and management with tangible insurance policy benefits. This program is the first-of-its-kind in the nation for pairing the risk reduction potential of pollution prevention and comprehensive environmental management practices with real incentives from environmental insurers, such as premium discounts, only to TURA filers. After four months of training, OTA was ready to kick-off this program. |
