Eastman Kodak Company aquired 100% ownership of Kodak Polychrome Graphics, a joint venture lithographic plate manufacturing operation co-located with Kodak Colorado Division. Upon Performance Track Membership renewal, this plate manufacturing operation will be included.



Commitment 1

Energy Use
Total (non-transportation) energy use
All
Energy reduction is a challenging objective in the manufacturing environment. To achieve this goal, KCD already has two projects underway that will achieve non-transportation energy reductions. First, KCD is replacing the ceramic media in one of the three regenerative thermal oxidizers (RTOs) used on-site for air emissions abatement. Replacing this media will result in a decreased change in pressure (or delta P) across the bed, which will produce a noticeable decrease in the energy used to drive airflow by the main fan. The second major project involves combining a lithographic plate coating line and a finishing cut-to-length machine into a single unit. This second project will eliminate double handling of materials that are coated and then directly cut-to-length. In addition to these two projects currently underway, KCD process engineers will evaluate energy saving projects that have been previously identified against available budget constraints to determine the feasibility of further reductions. Some of the projects identified include:
1. HVAC changes in the finishing complex. This project will rearrange the configuration of certain elements involved in heating, cooling, and dehumidification.
2. Lighting improvements in the finishing complex. This project will replace certain lighting elements to reduce energy consumption.
3. Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Aeration/Mixer activity. This project will optimize the use of the aerators/mixers to reduce energy consumption yet provide the necessary performance in the treatment process.

Site Environmental personnel will be involved in tracking energy reductions against PTrack commitments and site management will be advised of current progress quarterly.

Commitment 2

Waste
Non-hazardous waste generation
All measurements should represent the performance level for the indicator across the entire facility. For many indicators, however, you may choose to focus your commitment on a specific subset of the indicator, e.g. a specific material, a specific group of toxic air emissions, a particular waste component, a specific VOC, etc. All
KCD has made remarkable progress in reducing manufacturing waste and increasing the site landfill diversion rate. Prior to the divestiture, KCD achieved a landfill diversion rate of approximately 80%. Given the changes associated with the divestiture and the incorporation of Kodak Polychrome Graphics, it appears that the remaining KCD operations have also been achieving a diversion rate of approximately 80%. Following the divestiture, the contract with a third party recycler will be reviewed and renewed. KCD would like to drive this diversion rate above 80% by working with the recycler to review individual waste streams and evaluate the feasibility of recycling them. As new streams are identified for recycling, additional “shop-floor” training will take place to ensure that operators are aware of the changes in how those streams should be handled. Continuing manufacturing waste issues include the following:
1. Cores – Dense cardboard cores that end up in a compactor prove problematic in that compaction is not truly accomplished. KCD has been working to recycle these cores wherever possible, but cores with unused product wound on them cannot currently be recycled. This has been an ongoing issue and KCD will continue to work on an appropriate solution.
2. Off-spec Coated Product – Often on cores (as above) partial & full rolls of product that don’t meet quality standards currently have to be landfilled. Of course, the manufacturing goal is to reduce this stream but in the event that this material becomes waste a satisfactory recycling option needs to be available.

Site Environmental personnel will be involved in tracking waste reductions against PTrack commitments and site management will be advised of current progress quarterly.

In the table below, please enter your facility's amount of non-hazardous waste, broken down by waste management method. Please enter both the amounts that you manage currently and that you intend to manage in 2009. "Waste" is defined as all materials that are sent off-site that are neither product nor product packaging.

Commitment 3

Water Use
Total water used
All

Water conservation and use reduction efforts have been ongoing at KCD and will continue following the recent divesture. Specific utility projects have been identified but, to date, have not been initiated. These projects and any new projects will be reviewed by both KCD and the 3rd party contract that operates the utility facilities on-site to determine the current feasibility. Manufacturing uses of water at KCD include not only direct incorporation into coatings but also steam generation, operation of multiple cooling towers, and multiple baths associated with lithographic plate manufacturing. The Graphic Communications Group in building C-60 conducts the manufacturing of lithographic plates and has specific projects underway to reduce water use within their operations. Additional opportunities for conservation arise in all aspects of water use at KCD will be considered for near-term reduction projects.

Site Environmental personnel will be involved in tracking water use reductions against PTrack commitments and site management will be advised of current progress quarterly.

Commitment 4

Alternate Commitment
Currently, NPDES permitted dischargers are assigned permit limits at their discharge point(s) and very little information exists about the ambient water quality in the receiving water body. KCD and other dischargers to Segments 11,12, & 13 of the Cache la Poudre River have come together to form an ambient water quality-monitoring group. This group was formed in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment (CDPHE) to monitor the ambient water quality of the receiving water body.
This is an important environmental issue because the ambient water quality of the river is the true measure of the effectiveness of established permit limits. This group will provide coordinated and accurate data about the water quality along 45 river miles year round, which will be available to members of the monitoring group, regulators, and the public.
KCD will actively monitor and fund the associated biological studies for 2.5 of the 9 currently established river assessment locations (sites). Each of these sites will be sampled at least 4 times per year for water quality, at least twice a year for benthic analysis, and at least once a year for fish. The water quality parameters evaluated and the associated testing methods will be reviewed annually with CDPHE. All ambient water quality results obtained by the group will be provided to regulators and the public through an intermediate database that will subsequently upload the data to the EPA database STORET.
The environmental benefits of this project will become evident as the water quality data is acquired and analyzed by the interested parties. State regulators will apply new or adjust existing effluent limitations in the event that the ambient water quality suggests that additional limitations are warranted. Beyond potential changes to discharger’s permits, the public will have access to the ambient water quality information as its obtained.
