Definition of an Assessment Report

A pollution prevention assessment report is a survey of a company’s operation to check for pollution measures. It helps to identify and evaluate opportunities to reduce waste and pollution.

Benefits of an Assessment Report

The benefits of a pollution prevention assessment report are two fold. These reports help the community and the business. Due to the findings of a report a business may end up making changes that causes less pollution and therefore less harm to the environment and people around them.

Additionally, for highly regulated industries, a business may be able to avoid fines or other penalties die to not being up to regulations since the report will point out such things.

How an Assessment is Done

A pollution prevention assessment report is done through an on site visit. The first step is actually a telephone conversation where information is gathered about the business to give some background into the business and its operations. This is so the assessment team can prepare before the visit.

Once onsite, there is a meeting to go over the background information. Then follows a tour of the facilities where inspections are made and notes taken. Finally, there is a closing meeting where all the findings are discussed. At this time recommendations are made and assistance is offered to help the business improve on anything found during the assessment.

After the assessment the business has the ability to make changes that will improve their business and help to make it more environmental friendly. This is an opportunity to help out the world and prevention pollution that is causing so much harm to the environment.

A business that receives a report is taking a great step towards doing their part to prevent pollution and that is something to be proud of.
