WORKING FOR KENTUCKY

 
Funds that KPPC receives from the Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection's (KDEP) Hazardous Waste Management Fund and grants from outside sources finance the many pollution prevention and energy efficiency services offered to Kentucky's businesses, industries and other organizations. To date, the Center has provided free, nonregulatory waste assessments to nearly 500 Kentucky businesses with total savings reaching nearly $6 million. This averages to about $12,000 in savings for each company.

KPPC's SERVICES ARE:

 
FREE - On-site assessments are free to Kentucky businesses and organizations.  The Kentucky Department for Environmental Protection’s Hazardous Waste Management Fund covers the cost of basic services that the Center provides.

CONFIDENTIAL - Work that KPPC does for its clients is strictly confidential. KPPC will not share, distribute or otherwise divulge any information about its clients, their activities or any on-site assessment results without the client's permission.

NON-REGULATORY - KPPC does not enforce environmental regulations, nor does KPPC provide guidance on environmental regulations or other environmental compliance issues. KPPC’s recommendations are non-binding.
