Project XL 2000 Comprehensive Report compiles available
information on Proj ect XL. It follows up the work started in the
Project XL 1999 Comprehensive Report (October 1999).

This report has two volumes. Volume 1: Directory of Regulatory,
Policy, and Technology Innovations describes more than 70
innovations being explored by Proj ect XL. These innovations are
catalogued by the core functions that are the fundamental processes
and operations the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency must use in
order to perform its mission to protect human health and the
environment. Volume  1 presents technical and policy information
relevant to each innovation.

Volume 2: Directory  of Project Experiments and Results
summarizes the more than 50 projects and project proposals Project
XL has produced to date. The 16 projects that have been underway
for a year or more are  described in some detail, including, back-
ground, progress in meeting commitments, benefits for the environ-
ment, benefits for stakeholders, benefits for the project sponsor,
spin-off benefits (where applicable), key issues needing resolution,
lessons learned, and information resources. For the 37 projects in
implementation for less than one year or still under development, only
background information is given.

For a short overview of program accomplishments please see Encour-
aging Innovation, Delivering Results (September 2000) @ http://
