Helping New York Businesses Protect the Environment and Improve
their Bottom Line
Many small companies find it difficult to keep up with changes in
environmental regulations, permitting procedures, and new
technologies that save money and increase efficiency by reducing
waste, saving energy and preventing pollution. However, staying
current is important. A company unaware of new regulations and
technologies may not be operating as efficiently and competitively
as possible. It may also unknowingly be polluting the air, land and water and
consequently face significant penalties.
Environmental rules and regulations are in place to insure that all
of us use the best possible technologies and methods to protect our
natural resources and our health. Technical assistance and
publications are available to help business understand and comply
with air, water and solid waste and hazardous waste regulations.
Financial assistance is available to help business reduce waste,
prevent pollution, save energy and save money.
