Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction.

Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Over the coarse of 2021, we investigated methods of reducing waste of these materials. A final determination was made that we could use a distillation unit to allow us to use these materials multiple times, and therefore not purchase/scrap as much of them. Therefore, while no source reduction occurred in 2021, it is foreseen in the last half of 2022 and moving forward. |

Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Ongoing project to develop / install equipment to better filter or distill this material to reduce waste / release. Project expected to be completed in mid/late 2022. |

Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Because of very high usage of glycol ethers, investigation was started to look for ways to reduce the waste of this material through distillation / filtration & reuse (plan to be on line in 2022) |

Source Reduction: Source Reduction - While nothing was modified, filtering and reusing flush solvents (Glycol ethers) has always been a part of our process to try to limit waste / releases of this material. |
