2012 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - During reporting year 2012 our facility burned natural gas in one of our coal units for approximately 4 months. The different type of fuel burned causes a significant decrease in releases of TRI reportable chemical from previous year reports. |
||
2009 | Source Reduction - In 2009 our coal burned was lower in copper concentration than previous years however our air emissions increased because our main coal burned did not contain the lowest concentration. | ||
2005 |
Source Reduction:: W13: Improved maintenance scheduling, recordkeeping, or procedures
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management

The Waste Management Hierarchy |
The waste management hierarchy established by the Pollution Prevention Act (PPA) guides waste generators toward the best options for managing wastes.
The preferred option is to prevent pollution at its source, but for waste that is generated, the preferred management methods are recycling, followed
by burning for energy recovery, treatment and, as a last resort, disposing of the waste.
