The United States hosts the single largest market, accounting for approximately a quarter of the global market. The U.S. industry is a global leader in the sector, yielding $342.2 billion of revenue in 2017. U.S. environmental companies exported $47.8 billion worth of goods and services and maintained a trade surplus of $26.9 billion in 2015 (the most recent year data were available). The U.S. industry for environmental technologies employs approximately 1.6 million people. [1] The 1992 Amendments to the Export Enhancement Act (the Statute) declares that it is U.S. policy to foster the export of U.S. environmental technologies goods and services. To support this policy, the Statute mandates the creation of the Environmental Technologies Working Group (ETWG), an interagency subcommittee of the Trade Promotion Coordinating Committee (TPCC). The ETWG’sgoal isto address all issues with respect to the export promotion and export financing of U.S. environmental technologies, goods, and services, and to develop a strategy for expanding such items. Under the Statute, the Secretary of Commerce also must publicize information on existing and emerging markets and market trends to address issues and develop strategies related to environmental technologies goods and services, as well as a description of the export promotion programs agencies in the ETWG to develop in support of the ETWG’s goals. 2019 Environmental Technologies Top Markets Report The U.S. Department of Commerce’s International Trade Administration (ITA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) co-chair the ETWG. The interagency collaboration under the ETWG leverages the U.S. EPA’s experience in addressing challenging environmental problems with the ITA and other TPCC agencies’ trade policy, promotion, and finance capabilities. To achieve the goals for the ETWG within the context of finite government resources, the interagency team has targeted trade policy and promotion programs that enhance the international competitiveness of the U.S. environmental technologies industry. In so doing, the ETWG seeks to help mitigate global pollution problems, striking a balance between energy and industrial development and maintaining clean water, air, and soil. Specific activities include the dissemination of U.S. technical knowledge and expertise to foreign environmental regulatory organizations, the identification and removal of trade barriers, and the provision of targeted industry-specific export promotion services to U.S. companies. Top Markets: Key Findings and Methodology This “Top Markets Report” supports the efforts of the ETWG by identifying and ranking export markets where focusing finite government resources will have the greatest impact in terms of increasing commercial opportunities for U.S. companies. This report distills market forecasts and quantitative assessments into overall market scores that rank export markets relative to three critical traits: first, markets that are large and growing in absolute terms; second, those that have a defined and increasing need for imported technology and services; and third, those where U.S. exports are lower than expected based on markets with similar characteristics. This last component indicates that policy and trade barriers might exist, and where U.S. government intervention on behalf of U.S. exporters would be most helpful. 2019 Environmental Technologies Top Markets Report 2 For additional content, please visit www.trade.gov/topmarkets. U.S. Department of Commerce | International Trade Administration | Industry & Analysis The rankings are filtered further to adjust for mature markets that are large and open to U.S. products and services and that boast relative ease of doing business overall. For the purposes of this report, these markets are: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. The result of this analysis is a list of large and growing markets where the scope of opportunity for American companies is restricted by the presence of policies or other barriers to exports. These are the markets where U.S. government initiatives aimed at reducing trade barriers and promoting exports have the highest potential for impact. These markets and their environmental subsectors are scored on a scale from zero to 100, with 100 being the highest score in the Composite Environmental Technologies ranking. Utilizing these scores, readers can assess the relative contribution of a given market’s subsectors to its composite score and can compare both subsectors and composite scores across markets. (See Figure 2 for a visual representation of the top 25 markets, with the top 10 highlighted in dark blue. See Appendix I for the full rankings list and Appendix II: Methodology for a detailed description of this report’s methods.) The next step is a qualitative assessment of opportunities and challenges in the top 10 ranked markets. Industry and market experts collaborated on this effort to define the scope of opportunity for U.S. companies, as well as to identify barriers and obstacles that should be addressed by the U.S. government. This analysis leads to the identification of programmatic and policy remedies best suited to address both the challenges and opportunities in these critical markets. This suite of programs forms a nexus of trade promotion and policy interventions that are mutually reinforcing. By considering both promotion opportunities and policy barriers in this context, and by developing a holistic response, this report serves as a strategic guide to drive interagency coordination for promoting exports of U.S. environmental goods and services. Understanding Global Environmental Markets Before a government strategy to address the opportunities and challenges to environmental technology exports can be developed, a common definition of the environmental technology industry must be established. This is particularly important for environmental technologies, since the term could include any permutation of goods and services

  • Utilities and Service Systems
    3.19 UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS This section of the Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) describes the existing utilities and service systems in the SCAG region, identifies the regulatory framework with respect to laws and regulations that affect utilities and service systems, and analyzes the potential impacts of the Connect SoCal Plan (“Connect SoCal”; “Plan”). In addition, this PEIR provides regional-scale mitigation measures as well as project-level mitigation measures to be considered by lead agencies for subsequent, site-specific environmental review to reduce identified impacts as appropriate and feasible. 3.19.1 DEFINITIONS To provide a context for analysis, definitions of terms used in the regulatory framework, characterization of baseline conditions, and impact analysis for utilities and service systems are provided below. Nonhazardous Municipal Solid Waste: More commonly known as trash or garbage—consists of everyday items that are used and then thrown away, such as product packaging, grass clippings, furniture, clothing, bottles, food scraps, newspapers, appliances, paint, and batteries. This comes from homes, schools, hospitals, and businesses. Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB): There are nine RWQCBs in California. The RWQCBs protect ground and surface water quality and are responsible for implementing Water Quality Control Plans.1 Sanitary Landfill: Sanitary landfills are sites where waste is isolated from the environment until it is safe. It is considered safe when it has completely degraded biologically, chemically and physically. Septic Tank: An underground vessel for treating wastewater from a single dwelling or building by a combination of settling and anaerobic digestion. Effluent is usually disposed of through a dispersal system which consists of one or a combination of leach fields, seepage pits, and/or subsurface drip dispersal system.

  • SUEZ Signs New Agreement for Industrial Wastewater Treatment Services to Expand Environmental Business to Fujian Province
    China, 13 May, 2021 SUEZ Signs New Agreement for Industrial Wastewater Treatment Services to Expand Environmental Business to Fujian Province SUEZ through its joint venture1 recently signed an agreement with Shaowu, Fujian Province to acquire 51% equity in Shaowu Wujiatang Wastewater Treatment Company Limited. Under this agreement, the joint venture will be responsible for the operation, management and technological re-engineering of the wastewater treatment plant in Jintang Industrial Park of Shaowu, to provide high quality industrial wastewater treatment services for Jintang Industrial Park and adjacent townships. This move will also facilitate protection of the local river ecosystem. Shaowu, a city in Nanping, lies in the north of Fujian province. The Futun river, one of three major river systems on the upper reaches of the Minjiang river, runs across Jintang Industrial Park in Shaowu. Thanks to abundant fluorite resources, Jintang Industrial Park was built to develop the local fluorine chemical industry. While the development supports restructuring of the manufacturing sector and product upgrades, it has more demanding requirements for the industrial park’s wastewater treatment services. The Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Phase Ⅰ of Shaowu Wujiatang Wastewater Treatment Company Limited, which is in Jintang Industrial Park, provides wastewater treatment services exclusively for the park. The WWTP has a long-term treatment capacity target of 60,000 m3/day and a near-term target of 20,000 m3/day. The near-term target is expected to be achieved through expansion, by 2025. The WWTP’s current Phase I treatment capacity is 10,000 m3/day. Chemical wastewater often features complex composition, high salinity, toxic substances, low biodegradability, and fluctuating effluent quality.

Understanding how this activity works and participate in its conduct, directly or indirectly, is an essential condition for the effective exercise of citizenship. In recent years there has been increasing the demand for transparency in public affairs, especially in economic and financial issues of government. Informing the public is fundamental to the social control of the state. However, it is also a significant challenge for those who are in charge of this purpose. It is operating a set of data too extensive and highly complex.
