Benefits » Awards » Waste Reduction (Pollution Prevention) Awards
The Laboratory recognizes employees or groups of employees for their Pollution Prevention successes (i.e. minimized or eliminated waste, conserved water, electricity or natural gas; reduced air pollution; or procured environmentally preferable products).
The Pollution Prevention Award is coordinated by the Risk Reduction Office’s Pollution Prevention Team. Guidelines and call for nomination are issued annually and awards are presented in April.
These cash awards will be presented to recognize the Pollution Prevention successes of individuals or teams that have minimized waste; conserved water, electricity or natural gas; reduced air pollution; or procured environmentally preferable products. However, subcontractors are asked to provide the cash award to their subcontractors.
The Pollution Prevention Awards are open to all LANS employees and subcontractor employees who work at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.
