WPC EMS, the Next Generation in Environmental Management, 2000 Environmental Conference Proceedings

- E. J. Wilusz -- Wisconsin papermakers have once again developed a cutting edge environmental initiative - the Wisconsin Paper Council Environmental Management System, or WPC EMS. The WPC EMS is patterned after ISO 14001, but is tailored to meet the needs of the Wisconsin pulp and paper industry. Some companies will use it to enhance and existing management system. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first, if not the first industry sector in the United States to embrace an EMS. The Board of Directors of the Wisconsin Paper Council has unanimously approved the framework for the WPC EMS. Our goal is to have all 28 member companies implement the program within three years. A task force has developed a guidance manual to assist firms in implementing the program. A training workshop has been held to further assist participating companies.
