2020 |
Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Existing practices for pollution prevention are still being maintained such as lower HAP raw materials, non atomized spray application where possible, inventory management. However, no new options were evaluated because of COVID shut downs and closures during the 2020 reporting year. The focus was COVID prevention and compliance. |
