  2. Lesson Learning Goals At the end of this lesson you should be able to: • List the various components/requirements of an environmental management program (EMP) • Draft an EMP for a specified environmental objective or target • Specify the types of resources needed for undertaking an EMP • Identify key environmental performance indicators

  3. EnvironmentalManagement Programs An EMP is an action plan specifying: • How objectives and targets will be accomplished • Who is responsible for achieving them • Whowill manage and supervise the activities • Who will carry out the work • What they will do

  4. Environmental ManagementPrograms (Cont’d) An EMP is an action plan specifying: • What resources are needed (e.g., people, skills, equipment, time, money) • When the tasks will be completed (i.e., a schedule)

  5. ISO 14001 Environmental Management Programs says: The organization shall establish and maintain programs for achieving its objectives and targets, including: (a) designation of responsibility for achieving objectives and targets at each level and function of the organization (b) the means and time-frame by which they are to be achieved

  6. More Requirements • Environmental management programs must be maintained (i.e., revised and kept up to date) to reflect changes in personnel, schedules, objectives, and targets • EMP should have a high priority • Need to hold regular reviews of EMP to assess progress towards achieving objectives and targets

  7. Resources:A Responsibility of Management Business planning, budgeting, capital equipment and personnel allocations by top management must consider resources needed for environmental management programs

  8. Key Performance Indicators • Used to measure progress towards achievement of objectives and targets • Based on accurate, objective data generated by reliable techniques verified by quality assurance and quality control procedures

  9. ISO 14001 Environmental Management Programs also says: If a project relates to new developments and new or modified activities, products, or services, programs shall be amended where relevant to ensure that environmental management applies to such projects

  10. New Projects or Modifications Examples: • Changing a raw material or process chemical • Modifying a manufacturing process or installing a new process • Changing a waste treatment process • Installing a new piece of equipment with a potential to affect environmental aspects

  11. ISO 14001 Planning Summary ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY OBJECTIVES AND TARGETS ENVIROMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

  12. ISO 14001 Planning Sequence

  13. Concluding Thoughts Important points to remember are: • Environmental management programs are detailed action plans for achieving objectives and targets • EMP specify resources, responsibilities, schedule (who does what, how, and by when) • Key performance indicators help to track progress in EMP • EMP must be kept up to date (i.e., maintained) by regular review and revision
