How can an EMS enhance your P2 program? R. Samantha Plourde
What Is ISO 14001? • Voluntary international standards established by the international organization for standardizations • Made up of national standards institutes from 55 countries (government and business sectors) • Standards are required by the market for: • Quality • Safety • Environmental management
What ISO 14001 Is Not? • ISO 14001 is not a regulatory compliance audit. • It does not specify specific environmental performance criteria.
The Key Elements Of ISO 14001 • Environmental policy and commitment • Commitment to continual performance improvement to prevention of pollution • Planning • Implementation and operations • Checking and corrective actions • Management review
Environmental Management System “part of the overall management system that includes organizational structure, planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes and resources for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing and maintaining the environmental policy.”
Environmental Management System • Environmental Policy • Organizational Chart • Document Hierarchy • Register of Significant Environmental Aspects • Goals and Targets • Waste Management Practices

ISO 14001 Does Not . . . • Specify specific environmental performance criteria • A site can simply acknowledge their aspects and plan for potential impacts • Plan real performance improvement
Achieving ISO 14001 • Over $50,000 for five sites • High level of commitment by management • Little value for the environment • Sites do not focus on performance • Reduced incident rates • Better compliance with regulation • Reduced environmental impact
Implementing ISO 14001 • Meeting requirements: • Policies • Procedures • Rules and responsibilities • Training • Records What about performance?
Environmental Managers Must Change! • Past Focus: • Compliance • Down-stream outputs • Focus Today: • Up-stream – Prevention • Don’t reduce scrap . . . Talk about improving yields • Decreasing Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) • Lean Manufacturing
SMART Goals • Specific • Measurable • Achievable • Realistic • Time-bound
Significant Environmental Aspects • CA/EP Waste • Branson Ultra-sonic Cleaner Rinse water • Solid Hazardous Waste • Water from cooling jackets • Ag/Cu Extruded Wires • Methanol
Environmental Management (MAP / ISO 14001) • Regular Compliance • Community Outreach • New Product/Process/Packaging Assessments • Energy Use reduction • Water Usage avoidance • Raw Material Efficiency • Reduction of Packaging use • Reduction of Non Product Output
