EPA’s Performance Track Program recognizes and encourages top environmental performance by private and public facilities in the United States. Performance Track facilities go beyond compliance with regulatory requirements to achieve environmental excellence.

To encourage continuous environmental improvement, EPA offers incentives to Performance Track members. For example, EPA promotes the program and its members through national press releases and an annual national meeting during which the accomplishments of Performance Track members are recognized by the EPA Administrator and other top EPA officials. EPA New England also issues press releases (read Performance Track press releases) and holds annual meetings with the New England members. These meetings provide opportunities for members to network and share information. Members also discuss issues and provide feedback to senior regional EPA officials.
Your facility could be eligible for Performance Track if you:
- have an established environmental management system (EMS)
- have a good compliance record
- are committed to continuous improvement in environmental performance
- are committed to public outreach and reporting
