Appropriate Facilities for Implementing an EMS

 

In the Department of Commerce, an appropriate facility for implementing an EMS is any property, organization, or operation that conducts activities which can have a significant impact on the environment.  An office function, such as the Minority Business Development Agency, located in a building controlled by another organization, would most likely not be an appropriate facility.  The following facilities qualify as appropriate facilities:

 

NOAA – National Marine Fisheries Service, Northwest Science Center, Montlake Lab

NOAA – National Ocean Service, Beaufort Lab

NOAA – Marine and Aviation Operations, Atlantic Marine Operations Center Norfolk

NIST – Gaithersburg Campus

NIST – Boulder Laboratory
