P2 Integration Assessment P2 Integration a central tenet of national
policy
Assess status of P2 Integration Where it’s working well Where there is room for improvement What P2 has accomplished the past two
decades

The Role of InformationThe P2 Integration report looked
at a wide variety of data sources:What do they tell us about P2What do they not tell us about P2What can we learn about individual
programs and their impact on national goals

Essay Style P2 Reporting in TRIJerome Industries:
We purchased a wave soldering machine for use with No-Lead Solder. This is for product to be shipped to Europe that must comply with the RoHS rules. Eventually, we would like all customers to go Lead-free. When that happens, we will eliminate the old wave soldering machine which the tin/lead solder is used in. The lead-free machine is a better machine with much more process controls. If it wasn't for a few customers who do not want lead-free, we would be doing 100% of our soldering with the Lead-free machine.

But what does it mean? P2 activity has fallen sharply in the past 17 years?
-or-
P2 is still happening, but is under-reported?
-or-
TRI reporting requirements create the appearance of a falling trend?

Mixed Signals on P2 Substantial industrial spending on P2, but
shrinking P2 reporting in TRI Impressive case study reductions, but hard
to find a P2 signal in national data Most waste generation trends are
increasing or flat-lining Some programs have no evidence of P2
activity

A Few Points to Think About Targets and Goals
Without P2 targets, it’s hard to know if we’re making appropriate progress
Information -- Consistency and Scaling Local-level and Program-level data should
mesh with national data Do we have the right info?
(e.g. No HW trends available)
Status of P2 If pollution prevention is playing a relatively
small role in national waste management, is that the path to a sustainable future?
