Source Reduction:: S44: Other improvements to operating practices and training
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T05: Employee recommendation (independent of a formal company program)
|
S44: Implemented monthly HSE training schedule with operations employees (rather than concentrating training at one time) to ensure HSE topics are regularly discussed. Source Reduction - Recommendation came from Production group. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Maintained ISO14001 and ISO45001 certifications. |
2020 |
Source Reduction:: W39: Other spill or leak prevention
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
|
W39: Updated the SPCC plan. Source Reduction - Hired outside consultant to assist with update to SPCC plan. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - Maintained ISO14001 and achieved ISO45001 certification in 2020. |

Source Reduction:: W31: Improved storage or stacking procedures
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T06: Employee recommendation (under a formal company program)
|
W31: We updated our stacking procedures and no longer allow pyramid stacking in the plant. This allows more free floor space, sturdier stacks, and reduces spill risk. Source Reduction - We have implemented a "Good Catch" program where employees can anonymously submit any HSE concerns or improvement ideas. |
