FY 1999 Great Lakes Projects
Sector Based Pollution Prevention
| Sector Based Pollution Prevention (GL975144-01:
$5,000) |
| Recipient: The Delta Institute |
| Project Period: 9/1/99 to 9/30/00 |
| Project Officer: Rita Cestaric (312-886-6815) |
Through this project, the Delta Institute will focus on achieving
toxics reductions through commitments from private and public sector owned
and operated energy production units. There are three separate components
to this project. The first is to engage selected industrial sectors in
pollution prevention initiatives through increased use of energy
efficiency and conservation technologies for boilers. The second is to
determine the incentives for and barriers to investments in energy
efficiency technologies and conservation practices. The final component
involves development of a method to quantify the reduction of persistent
bioaccumulative toxics from energy efficiency and conservation
technologies and practices. |
