The mission of the Office of Pollution Prevention (OPP) is to promote pollution
prevention (P2) as the preferred strategy for environmental protection. Reducing
or eliminating pollution at the source is preferable to treating or managing
it after the fact. P2 not only can help businesses and others achieve better
environmental protection, but it can also help them save money, improve efficiency
and ease regulatory concerns.
The Office of Pollution Prevention (OPP) promotes P2 through a variety of
educational, technical assistance, regulatory integration and voluntary recognition
initiatives.
