Identification of Pollution Prevention (P2) Technologies for Possible Inclusionin Enforcement Agreements Using Supplemental Environmental Projects (SEPs) and Injunctive Relief

摘要

In this report, we describe a methodological approach for the identification ofpromising pollution prevention (P2) technologies for possible inclusion in Supplemental Enforcement Projects in the context of Enforcement Settlements. The methodology offers a practical strategy for future application in the construction pollution-oriented inter-sector prioritization schemes. We also demonstrate the search methodology in the identification of eight Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)-specific and four general-purpose P2 technologies. This report describes the screening criteria and proposed screening methodology in the identification of high-priority industrial sectors/industrial processes and product lines. These high-priority areas present a high potential for tangible environmental benefits if P2 technologies are implemented.
