| Project Description |
As part of its ongoing Dry Cleaner Compliance and Pollution Prevention Initiative, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's Small Business Assistance Program (SBAP) conducted 65 site visits at dry cleaners in September, October, and November 2004, with a special emphasis on Korean-owned or operated establishments. During these site visits, guidance was provided on how to comply with air permitting requirements, right to know reporting requirements, hazardous waste requirements, and wastewater issues. Additionally, facilities are informed about ways to reduce emissions from dry cleaning equipment by implementing best management practices as outlined in the SBAP's Dry Cleaner Checklist.
In addition, the SBAP recently developed its 2005 Dry Cleaners Compliance Calendar, in both English and Korean. This calendar is a convenient tool for dry cleaners to use to perform their required maximum achievable control technology (MACT) record keeping. |
