Subject: Your favorite EMS, P2, and/or
RTK web resources?
Fellow P2Techies --
One of the several hats I wear
(professionally and metaphorically speaking) is as a contractor supporting the
National Environmental Compliance Assistance Clearinghouse (http://cfpub.epa.gov/clearinghouse/). The purpose of the Clearinghouse is to
provide a clearinghouse of compliance assistance/technical assistance
information, aimed at the technical assistance provider as its PRIMARY
audience. Hence, it is intended more as a research tool for folks like
us (technical assistance providers) than as a tool for the regulated community
(our customers), though it obviously serves both. The Clearinghouse is
funded via the US EPA Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA) as
a resource for the entire technical assistance community.
In any event, this summer I've been graced
with the presence of a really, really good student intern who is helping me
with this project. Together, we've been focusing on improving the
quality of the database which drives the Clearinghouse. We (and by "we"
I mean "Zach, the noble and dedicated intern who works at lightening speed,
for mere peanuts") have made a lot of progress on cleaning up the data in the
Clearinghouse, and are now switching our emphasis to acquiring new
resources.
By "resources" I mean web sites of interest
to the technical assistance community.
We would appreciate
recommendations/nominations/suggestions for your favorite web resources
related to the following subjects:
- P2 and compliance (programs, tools, and documents which support p2
and compliance together/holistically)
- Environmental Management Systems (applications of EMS to compliance
assurance)
- Chemical Right To
Know, particularly from a regulatory/compliance perspective
You may send replies directly to me, or to
the list if you want to make a blatant plug for your favorite
program/website.
