About the Program
Manufacturers with fewer than 500 employees
at any one facility are eligible to have a multi-media
pollution prevention assessment undertaken by a pre-qualified
pollution prevention consultant from OCETA’s roster.
The consultant will identify the root causes of priority pollutants
and wastes, and recommend improvements in technology, processes
and the operating practices for the facility.
Participants receive a funding incentive of up to
50 per cent (maximum $4,000) to help offset the costs
of an $8,000 pollution prevention assessment conducted by
a pre-qualified pollution prevention consultant.
By participating, businesses can:
- Save money and reduce
cost
- Reduce business risks and preserve capital
asset value
- Reduce or eliminate toxics, sewer discharges,
smog precursors, greenhouse gas emissions, and hazardous
wastes at the source
- Reduce or eliminate their need to report
to the Ontario Mandatory Emission Reporting Regulation 127,
Ontario Hazardous Waste Information Network (HWIN) and the
National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI)
- Meet or exceed the regulatory requirements
of the Municipal or Regional Sewer Use By-law and the Canadian
Environmental Protection Act (CEPA)
