FY1999 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.
