SUMMARY: The document ``Sustainable Industry: Promoting Strategic
Environmental Protection in the Industrial Sector, Phase 1 Report'' is

economic performance in the metal finishing, photoimaging, and
thermoset plastic industries. Hard copy and microfiche copies of the
report can be purchased through the National Technical Information
Service (NTIS). Ordering information is provided.
DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION: The Sustainable Industry Project represents a new
approach to development of environmental policy for industry. The
project is based on the premise that environmental policies for the
industrial sector in the 1990s must be developed from a thorough
understanding of the complex set of characteristics and decision-making
factors that are unique to individual industrial sector or sub-sectors.
Working with industries, states, non-governmental organizations, and
other interested parties, EPA intends to design policies that will
protect the environment and human health while fostering competitive
and sustainable industries.
The primary goal of the Sustainable Industry Project is to develop,
test, and implement industry-specific policy recommendations that will
remove barriers to innovation and promote strategic environmental
protection. The Phase 1 Report details the selection of the three
industries, the development of a network of ``stakeholders'' for the
project, identification of the key drivers and barriers that influence
environmental performance in each industry, and selection of the policy
options that will effect changes in that performance.
ORDERING INFORMATION: The Phase 1 Report has been assigned the NTIS
number PB94-195054. The price is $36.50 ($17.50 for microfiche). Orders
