Under the authority of the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990, approximately $700,000 will be available to support grants to States, Tribes, and Intertribal Consortia in FY 2006 for programs to promote the use of successful source reduction techniques by businesses.
These grants are intended to make available information about source reduction opportunities, often referred to as “pollution prevention”. The information on pollution prevention could include: providing technical assistance advice, assistance in developing plans for prevention activities or providing training in pollution prevention techniques.
Increasing the efficiency of pollution prevention information systems has become a focus for this grant program to ensure that P2 information is available to all facilities, businesses or technical assistance providers. EPA has established a network of regional P2 information centers to collaboratively develop and disseminate P2 information and provide training in P2 approaches. These Regional P2 centers are known as Pollution Prevention Resource Exchange (P2Rx) centers and utilize Internet resources to reach a broad audience. Further information about past successful grantees can be found at www.p2rx.org
