STEP 1: Checklist
Review the checklist/worksheet that most fits your business. Submit the form either electronically or call the Environmental Health office at (360) 385-9444 to schedule your on-site consultation visit for assistance with the checklist/worksheet.
STEP 2: Worksheet (pollution prevention ideas)
The EnviroStars worksheet helps prospective members identify pollution prevention opportunities best suited for their business. It’s also where you establish and annual goal. You decide how aggressive a goal you would like to establish. EnviroStars only requires that you have one. The more you accomplish the greater the potential for reaching the higher star levels.
STEP 3: The consultation visit (FREE technical assistance)
- How can I save money on environmental management?
- What new pollution control technology is available for my business?
- What are some of the options for reducing regulatory burden?
- What are the state and local waste management requirements and does my business comply with them?
- How can I reduce liability?
These are some of the questions that businesses get answered with an on-site consultation visit from an Environmental Health Specialist. The visit is one of the benefits for prospective EnviroStars members. Visits are scheduled at your convenience and take approximately 1 - hour to complete. Following the visit, you will receive suggestions on how to improve your business’ environmental performance. You choose what suggestions are most appropriate and that you would like to implement at your business. Keep in mind your business may already qualify as an EnviroStar for things you are already doing.
STEP 4: Certification
Once you complete the worksheet and have the site consultation visit, an Environmental Health Specialist will determine the star level (2-5) for your business.
A welcome package containing various EnviroStar promotional materials will be provided to help you share your environmental success with your customers.
