Recommendation IND3: Develop a standardized process for sector work

Develop a standardized process to clarify and guide how sectors will be selected in the future and how sector work will be conducted. Whenever possible, sector projects will emphasize multi-media approaches and address both pollution prevention and compliance issues.

Related Milestone

Most of the companies participating in the Cleaner Production Challenge have an overall 10-25 percent reduction in wastes, including a 50-90 percent reduction of water consumption and wastewaters and 30-60 percent reduction of hazardous sludge. (It is Ecology’s intent that specific numerical goals be set for any future sector work.)

Related Milestone

Another sector project has been chosen and work has been started on it.

Related Milestone

If in the next two years another PBT chemical is chosen for an action plan by Ecology in compliance with the proposed PBT rule, that plan has been developed, and at least partially implemented.
