about our Planet.becauseWhen it comes to measuring environmental practices, one common method 

is to ask whether a company complies with all environmental regulations 

i h i i d Whil li i id d bgoverning their industry. While compliance is considered by some a 

low threshold, voluntary compliance and operating well within state standards 

remains an objective way to assess a company's environmental performance. 

We pride ourselves in our clean operations that stay within the regulatory standards wherever we operate. 

We achieve this by ensuring our environmental, safety, risk and regulatory 

h l l i d d hteams are current on the latest regulations, and empowered to change 

our operations based on new or emerging standards 

and best practices in our industries. 

POLLUTION PREVENTION AND MINIMIZING ENVIRONMENTAL HARM. We strive to improve operations and lessen our environmental impact,

ensure operating by‐products do not wind up in landfills. Raw materials not

h l df ll ll d h l kthat go into landfills. Every EZH2O installed in a school, gym, park,
