NC Federal Environmental Symposium

Have you heard about our NC Federal Environmental Symposium coming up this September 10th?  It’s a great opportunity to meet with the government agencies and  representatives from  the military installations in North Carolina to find out what they will be looking for in order to meet the federal environmental mandates of Executive Order 13514, and engage in facilitated discussions about how YOUR business can provide the services and products they will need.

There will be a series of 5 Roundtables on the following topics: Buildings, Infrastructure and Energy; Materiel Lifecycle Management and Green Procurement; Water, Waste Water and Storm Water Management; Training Areas, Land Management and Encroachment; and Transportation and Alternative Fuels. The Roundtables will allow agencies to briefly address their ongoing initiatives and to receive input and feedback from industry on meeting their outstanding requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and meet water, energy and waste reduction targets.  You may attend as many or as few Roundtables as you like.  Registration is open NOW!
