OFFICE OF POLLUTION PREVENTION: TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES IN 1990
-------
Introduction
Faced with the increasing costs and liabilities
associated with end-of-pipe waste management
practices, many hazardous waste generators are
turning to pollution prevention as a cleaner, safer,
and more cost-effective alternative. Pollution
prevention is an umbrella term for a wide range of
source reduction activities which may include toxics
use reduction, chemical substitution, process
modification, product redesign, and better
management practices. The United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has begun
an aggressive effort aimed at integrating the concept
of pollution prevention into all of its programs and
activities. In addition, the Agency strives to promote
pollution prevention efforts by other federal agencies,
states, local governments, industry, universities,
and the general public. Providing interested parties
with information about pollution prevention training
resources is an important step in this direction.
This guide contains information about publicly
sponsored training opportunities and resources that
exist throughout the nation. It is not intended to be
a listing of all pollution prevention resources, but
rather a directory of training-related services and
materials. It covers seminars and workshops, as well
as hardcopy and video training materials, and
provides contact information for state and federal
pollution prevention programs. The information in
this guide has been provided by state environmental
offices and technical assistance programs, as well as
EPA Headquarters and Regional Offices. Additional
pollution prevention information can be obtained
by accessing EPA's Pollution Prevention Information
Clearinghouse, which offers a wide range of free
information services (see "Pollution Prevention
Resources").
Note: The appearance in this guide of training
courses and materials other than those produced or
sponsored by U.S. EPA does not constitute an
endorsement of their quality by the Agency. Many
of the organizations sponsoring such training
opportunities have pollution prevention policies
which differ significantly from those of the U.S. EPA
and thus do not reflect the Agency's position.
Due to the popularity and rapid growth of this
field, many pollution prevention efforts are in a state
of flux. We worked to ensure that the information in
this guide was as current as possible when it was sent
to press, but given the dynamic character of the
field, some information will have changed since it
was collected. We plan to expand and update this
publication annually to include additional
information called to our attention in the future.

your training opportunities, calendar events, or

Pollution Prevention
Training Courses
Many publicly-sponsored training courses,
seminars, and workshops are held throughout
the nation each year, but not all are well
publicized. These training programs are the
products of the expertise, time, and creative
energy of numerous pollution prevention
professionals. This section is designed for
those interested in participating in such
training or drawing on the experience of others
who have already developed a program. For
further information about a particular
program, contact the sponsoring organization.

POLLUTION PREVENTION BENEFITS MANUAL
This manual promotes a complete and objective
analysis of the economic benefits of multi-media
pollution prevention projects. Corporate experience
has shown that such projects frequently are not
undertaken because the benefits of the projectin
terms of reduced raw materials, regulatory
compliance, and environmental liability costsare
poorly understood. The Pollution Prevention Benefits
Manual enables you to calculate the true cost of the
current materials and waste management practice
and then evaluate the financial payback of the
pollution prevention alternative. The manual
includes in-depth discussions of usual costs, hidden
regulatory costs, liability costs, less tangible costs,
and financial protocol. Appendices contain
worksheets, sections on hidden costs of selected
regulations, future liability costs, an example using
a hypothetical firm, and treatment standards under
the land disposal restrictions.

Less Is More highlights industry success stories that
prove that pollution prevention is the best alternative
to costly end-of-the-pipe waste management
strategies, such as treatment and disposal. The
success stories draw from the experiences of both
large and small industries, which include
electroplating, ink manufacturing, metal parts
manufacturing, pesticide formulating, and
polyethylene producing concerns. The video
describes three needs essential to successful pollution
programs: top-down corporate commitment to
lead the way, employee involvement, and procedures
to track costs and potential liabilities. Less Is More
demonstrates that with regard to pollution
prevention, company innovation not regulation
is the key to cost savings, better worker health,
and a cleaner environment. Preventing industrial
waste generation is a "Win-Win" situation in which
government and industry can work as partners for a
safer, cleaner world.

Cost: $395.00
In a series of company profiles, Waste Not examines
activities and programs within industry which have
been designed to reduce or eliminate the generation
of hazardous waste at the source. Company
spokespersons describe how reducing waste has
helped them lower costs and liabilities. Profiles
include small, medium, and large manufacturers of
electroplated, rubber, and photographic products.
Although basically non-technical, the tape includes
an overview of waste reduction methods and
emphasizes the need to relate waste reduction to
manufacturing in terms of processes, costs, and
design.
WASTE NOT...WANT NOT
(15 min.)
U.S. EPA Region IV
345 Courdand Street, N.E.
Atlanta, Georgia 30365
Available through the PPIC
Cost: Free Loan
Overconsumption, consumer preference for
disposable products, and an "out of sight, out of
mind" mentality among the public has led to the
nation's current municipal solid waste crisis. The
U.S. generates 160 million tons of this waste each
year, which, when compounded by shrinking
landfill space and the "not in my backyard"
syndrome, leaves few waste management
options. Waste Not... Want Not offers EPA's
solution: a waste management hierarchy led by
source reduction and recycling. The video
stresses that government, industry, and the public
must work cooperatively if the national waste
reduction goal of 25 percent by 1992 is to be
met. Industry leadership in preventing pollution
is illustrated in highlights of 3M's Pollution
Prevention Pays Program.

practical information on how to approach and
implement a multimedia waste reduction program.
The teleconference addresses the need to train both
industrial and regulatory personnel. A portion of the
teleconference addresses the national strategy for
pollution prevention, strengthening state waste
reduction programs and opportunities for local
governments to promote pollution prevention.
Another portion of the teleconference outlines the
incentives for industry to implement waste reduction
plans with successful company case studies. These
eight case studies detail how the companies
determined waste reduction options and

implemented the methods and techniques identified.
Finally, the teleconference covers waste reduction
assessment procedures that motivate people to
search, screen, and put into practice measures that
result in drecreased waste generation. Different
sessions of the teleconference can be used as "stand
alone" training courses. The teleconference's training
materials are on the "cutting edge" of identified
waste reduction needs for industry and state
programs.

Pollution Prevention
Information
Clearinghouse
The Pollution Prevention Information Clearing-
house (PPIC) is dedicated to reducing or elimi-
nating industrial pollutants through technology
transfer, education, and public awareness. The
Clearinghouse contains technical, policy, pro-
grammatic, legislative, and^nancialinfoTmation
concerning source reduction and recycling efforts
in the United States and abroad. It is a free, non-
regulatory service of the US. EPA and is acces-
sible by personal computer, telephone hotline, or
mail.
PPIC Structure ^e Clearinghouse is comprised of four information exchange mechanisms:
Repository
A hard copy reference library containing the most current pollution prevention
information. Case studies, fact sheets, programmatic and legislative information,
and training materials are included in the Repository.
Electronic Information Exchange System (EIES)
A 24-hour electronic network consisting of a message center, technical data
bases, issue-specific "mini-exchanges," and a calendar of events devoted exclusively
to pollution prevention. The system enables the user to access the Repository,
a document ordering service, and PPIC technical staff.
Hotline
A toll free telephone service to answer or refer questions and provide a link to
the EIES for users without access to a personal computer.
Outreach Efforts
Workshops and information packets containing industry-specific materials on
pollution prevention opportunities.

Program
(NEMPPJ
The NEMPP was established in 1989 to enhance the capabilities of state
environmental officials in New England, New Jersey, and New York to implement
effective source reduction programs. The project involves three components:
establishing a clearinghouse of information on pollution prevention, including
technical data, reports, case studies, and a list of pollution prevention experts;
conducting training sessions for state officials and industry representatives on
source reduction and recycling policies, strategies, and technologies; and
researching source reduction strategies for the major toxic metals in incinerator
emissions and ash. The clearinghouse provides pollution prevention information
to the public, industry representatives, and state officials and identifies upcoming
pollution prevention meetings and conferences.

Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee). The
Resource Center has the capability to provide technical waste reduction
information from the national level, from federal governmental agencies, from
all 50 states, and from numerous private sources. The Center serves as a
clearinghouse that will provide answers and information to people who request
it, identify upcoming conferences and meetings, identify new publications, and
provide technical staff support to prepare reports on industry-specific waste
