| Project Description |
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, Division of Solid and Hazardous Materials, with assistance from the Pollution Prevention Unit (PPU), Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC), Empire State Development (ESD), the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), and the P2 Council have developed an Environmental Results Program (ERP) to inspect, improve compliance, and assist the auto-body and printer sectors. The project activities include baseline inspections (which are underway), outreach, self certification, audit submission, metrics, and targeted follow-up inspections.
The Council is also developing an outreach program to identify opportunities to introduce pollution prevention technologies to the businesses in SIC codes 30 (Plastics), 32 (Stone/Clay/Glass), and 36 (Electrical). These SIC codes were initially identified by reviewing 2004 TRI release data and looking for SIC codes showing increases since 2000. |
