Our Strata-G professionals are experts at creating Pollution Prevention (P2) programs that integrate requirements from multiple sources such as State and Federal regulations, contract requirements, corporate directives, and facility permits and can design and coordinate recycling programs that result in significant cost savings to you.

Strata-G currently has on-staff specialists in RCRA, TSCA, NEPA, NHPA, NPDES, NESHAPS, CAA, and EPCRA requirements who will help you ensure compliance with projects involving complex air, water, and waste issues. Strata-G technical services have successfully helped companies in both the public and private sector to reduce, reuse, and recycle materials from process design to final demolition, to conduct P2 audits and reviews, to create P2 training programs and guides, and to develop detailed waste quantity and cost analyses for major manufacturing facilities.

Strata-G P2 personnel are also experienced in supporting sustainable design, waste minimization, environmentally preferred purchasing, green transportation methods and metrics, and surplus chemical and material management processes. Projects in these areas have included attaining Tennessee Pollution Prevention Partnership (TP3) accreditation, providing technical support to multiple federal award-winning P2 programs, and enabling a $1.8M cost avoidance and savings for a single customer.
Project Description

Pollution Prevention Program Support and EMS Integration Project
Strata-G reviewed the implementation of the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) to identify opportunities for integrating P2 into existing EMS and work planning processes. Activities included the evaluation of audit reports, site-wide directives, and compiled waste data to support a variety of activities for the ORNL P2 Program, including conducting Pollution Prevention Opportunity Assessments (PPOAs), preparing the Annual Pollution Prevention Progress Report and Tennessee Hazardous Waste Reduction Act (THWRA) Annual Report, and determining progress toward waste reduction goals.
