One of our primary active programs is participation in the Toxics Use Reduction Act (TURA), a Massachusetts mandate requiring companies that consume large quantities of specific toxic chemicals to evaluate pollution prevention opportunities, implement them if practical, and measure and report their results on an annual basis. They must also evaluate their efforts and update their toxics use reduction plans every other year. TURA objectives: - Reduce the generation of toxic waste by 50 percent statewide.
- Establish toxics use reduction (TUR) as the preferred means for achieving compliance with federal and state environmental, public health and work safety laws and regulations;
- Provide and maintain competitive advantages for Massachusetts businesses, both large and small, while advancing innovation in cleaner production techniques;
- Enhance and strengthen environmental law enforcement across the state; and
- Promote coordination and cooperation among all state agencies that administer toxics-related programs.
Major amendments to TURA were passed by the state Legislature and signed into law in 2006. These amendments: - Streamlined reporting and planning requirements;
- Established categorization of chemicals as high hazard and low hazard with different reporting thresholds and fees; and
- Provided options for resource conservation planning (e.g., energy, water, materials) and environmental management systems (EMSs) in lieu of toxics use reduction plans in certain circumstances.
Benefits of TURA As we have worked to comply with TURA, NCC has found means to lower our environmental permitting, production and waste management costs by: - Changing and modernizing production practices;
- Improving operation and maintenance;
- Reformulating products with non-toxic ingredients; and
- Recycling raw materials throughout the production process.
By emphasizing industrial efficiency and pollution prevention, toxics use reduction (TUR) benefits the environment, the economy and the overall quality of life in Massachusetts. ^ Back to top |
