Abstract |
The ORD Waste Minimization Strategy was viewed as a modest, yet promising attempt at responding to several aspects of the Agency's 1986 Report to Congress: minimization of Hazardous Wastes. The ORD Strategy is not an Agency-wide program plan for a subset of topics. Although the Report to Congress is somewhat more comprehensive, it does not contain program plans. In order to develop a more comprehensive waste minimization strategy, ORD, OSW and other offices within the Agency should work cooperatively to develop a more comprehensive waste minimization strategy. In addition, the Agency should develop an EPA-wide waste minimization strategy while development of the ORD waste minimization program progresses. |
