SUMMARY:2009 Mercury Science & Policy Conference with a Special Focus on the Great Lakes & Northeast Regions
DESCRIPTION:Organized & Sponsored by:\nEPA & NEWMOA \nObjectives of the Conference \n\nProvide current information on human health\, environmental\, and ecological research findings pertaining to mercury in addition to associated policy activities\nProvide a forum for evaluating advancements in reducing mercury releases\nProvide a forum for discussing the scientific and public health basis for policy actions to effectively address mercury risks\nFacilitate an exchange on the cross media technical\, policy\, and management issues pertaining to mercury\nIdentify high priority areas for future cost effective mercury reduction activities and strategies\nIdentify high priority areas for future research needed to inform policy and management decisions\n\nThe overall purpose of the Conference was to connect current scientific research findings with policy with balance in perspectives and without bias toward any point of view. In this context\, policy refers to government policy as reflected in federal\, state\, or local government actions that include legislative\, regulatory\, voluntary\, and educational efforts. In general\, the scientific research focused on applied rather than basic research\, unless the basic science was important to understanding critical issues and questions. Conference session topics targeted priority topics and issues of special interest in the Great Lakes or Northeast Regions. \nParticipants \n\nFederal\, state\, provincial\, tribal\, and local environmental and public health officials\nPolicy makers and elected officials\nAcademic and government researchers\nNon-governmental and community organizations\nIndustry representatives\nLabor organization representatives\n\nGeographic Focus \nThe Conference was designed to target participation from the geographic area covered by the following States and provinces: Connecticut\, Illinois\, Indiana\, Maine\, Massachusetts\, Michigan\, Minnesota\, New Hampshire\, New York\, New Jersey\, Ohio\, Rhode Island\, Pennsylvania\, Wisconsin\, and Vermont; New Brunswick\, Newfoundland\, Nova Scotia\, Ontario\, Prince Edward Island\, and Quebec.

SUMMARY:Workshop on Cleanup Advice for Compact Fluorescent Lamps
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this meeting was to provide local\, state\, provincial\, and federal environmental and health officials with an opportunity to discuss the available monitoring data regarding breakage of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs)\, potential health effects from exposure to mercury released as a result of broken CFLs\, and appropriate advice for homeowners on proper clean-up and personal protection in the event of an accident. \nOfficials from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection presented the preliminary results of their monitoring and data collection efforts and the implications for guidance on proper lamp cleanup. Public health officials from Maine and EPA discussed what is known about the potential health effects of mercury exposure from broken CFLs and proper advice for residents. The participants reviewed existing clean-up guidance and discussed ideas and suggestions for aligning the guidance that is provided to residents throughout the Region. \nMeeting attendees: \n\nState and federal environmental officials\nState public health officials

SUMMARY:Achieving Mercury Reductions in Products & Waste
DESCRIPTION:In April 1997\, a milestone was set — The Great Lakes Basin Bi-National Toxics Strategy called for virtual elimination of mercury. \nOne year later — The New England Governors & Eastern Canadian Premiers 1998 Mercury Reduction Plan launched mercury reduction efforts in the Northeast.\nIt’s been five years since — the Baltimore 2000 Mercury Reduction Conference propelled and shaped mercury reduction efforts nationwide… \nFour years since — The Quicksilver Caucus united interstate organizations to focus on national policy… \nEach of these events was a milestone\, instrumental in launching subsequent projects and programs that have resulted in a large- scale reduction of mercury both regionally and nationally. \n“Achieving Mercury Reductions in Products and Waste” was funded and designed specifically for federal\, state\, tribal\, local government\, and university-based mercury reduction program coordinators\, staff\, and regulators. \nThe two and a half day conference focused on various state\, regional\, and national mercury reduction programs\, with three session tracks: \n\nSectors: Schools\, Dental Clinics\, and Medical Facilities\nMercury Reduction Policy & Legislation\nMercury Added Products\n\nPresentations Provided Case Studies & Tools for: \n\nAuto switch collection programs\nOutreach & assistance to hospitals\, dental clinics\, and schools\nThermometer & thermostat collection & reduction projects\nPartnering with industry & other private sector groups\nPromoting lamp recycling\nEncouraging reductions in other mercury wastes & products\nMercury reduction legislation\nMuch more…\n\nThere were also small exhibits for participants to showcase representative products\, helpful tools\, templates and examples for building successful mercury reduction programs. \nThe conference participants shared successes\, lessons learned\, new opportunities\, and how to address challenges.
