EPA’s Performance Track Program recognizes and encourages
top environmental performance by private and public facilities
in the United States. Performance Track facilities go beyond
compliance with regulatory requirements to achieve environmental
excellence.
To encourage continuous environmental improvement, EPA offers
incentives to Performance Track members. For example, EPA
promotes the program and its members through national press
releases and an annual national meeting during which the accomplishments
of Performance Track members are recognized by the EPA Administrator
and other top EPA officials. These meetings provide opportunities
for members to network and share information. Members also
discuss issues and provide feedback to senior regional EPA
officials.
An additional incentive to Performance Track facilities is
their designation as a low priority for routine EPA inspections.
As a low inspection priority, member facilities can save the
resources and time regularly spent preparing for and responding
to inspections.
Your facility could be eligible for Performance Track if
you:
- have an established environmental management system (EMS)
- have a good compliance record
- are committed to continuous improvement in environmental
performance
- are committed to public outreach and reporting
EPA Region 10 serves the Pacific Northwest and coordinates
with the states of Alaska, Idaho, Oregon and Washington in
implementing the Performance Track program.
