Cross functional teams are used. Sustainable pollution prevention programs are cost effective. Pollution prevention projects need to meet a rate of return on investment. Facilities use financial and non-financial criteria to evaluate projects. Facilities implement some pollution prevention projects that are not cost effective Pollution prevention progress is tracked and communicated.
Facilities have the ability to measure progress.
Facilities periodically publish results against goals. Results are communicated to key people. There is a responsibility and accountability for pollution prevention results. Many facilities tie waste and emissions accountability to the generating operation. Facility pollution prevention teams know their plant culture and pattern the program to that culture.
