The Nation Watches Oregon as they Legislate Pollution Prevention
Oregon Senate Bill 737 presents big challenges to the municipalities and businesses on the “hot seat” to reduce persistent pollutants in water. This session presents a replicable P2 program aiming to help meet these challenges.
EcoBiz, an ecological business certification program, is a voluntary multi-media approach that recognizes businesses who adopt a set of sustainable practices. This program is now being seen as a practical and adaptable “Plug & Play” template to foster wide-ranging business practice change, as well as a model for municipalities to meet the requirements imposed by regulatory drivers.
