EnvironmentalAspectsBackground and ExhibitsIn Module 1, you defined the scope of your facility’sEMS, in Module 3, you drafted your facility’s policythat included commitments for continual improve-ment and prevention of pollution, and in Module 4,you identified the legal requirements and voluntarycommitments that apply to your facility. In Module 5,you will use all that information as you identify theenvironmental aspects associated with your facilityand determine the subset of these aspects that havesignificant impacts. The outcome of Module 5’sactivities will be your list of significant environmen-tal aspects (SEAs), upon which all of yoursubsequent objectives and targets, environmentalmanagement programs (EMPs), operationalcontrols, monitoring and measurement, training,etc., will be based within your EMS.

Definitions and Relationships

An environmental aspect is defined as anelement of a facility’s activities, products, or servic-es that can or does interact with the environment.These interactions and their effects may be continu-ous in nature, periodic, or associated only withevents, such as emergencies.

An environmental impact is defined as anychange to the environment, whether adverse orbeneficial, resulting from a facility’s activities, prod-ucts, or services.

A significant environmental aspect is one thatmay produce a significant environmental impact.

In short, the aspect is the cause and the impact isthe effect. Exhibit 5-1: Cause and Effect —Environmental Aspects and EnvironmentalImpacts, provides examples of this relationship.

Techniques and

Data Sources

When Best Used

Emission Inventories Used to quantify emissions of pollutants to the air. Some data on emissions or chemicals of concern

may already be available to you, based on EPCRA requirements and Clean Air Act (CAA) Title V

permitting program data requirements.

Environmental

Compliance Audits

Used to assess compliance with federal, state, and local environmental regulations. These

methodologies are in common use. Their scope and level of detail vary. These are not typically

directed at examining environmental impacts (particularly for products).

Environmental Cost

Accounting

Used to assess the full environmental costs associated with activities, products, or services. Emerging

protocols require comprehensive assessments to quantify such costs.

Environmental

Impact Assessments

Used to satisfy requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) regarding the

evaluation of environmental impacts associated with proposed projects. Methodology in common use,

but not typically used to assess environmental impacts associated with existing operations.

Environmental

Property Assessments

Used to assess potential environmental liabilities associated with facility or business acquisitions or

divestitures. The scope and level of detail is variable. These assessments typically do not assess

impacts associated with products or services.

Failure Mode and

Effects Analyses

Commonly used in the quality field to identify and prioritize potential equipment and process failures

as well as to identify potential corrective actions. Often used as a precursor to formal root cause

analyses.

Life Cycle

Assessments

Used to assess the cradle-to-grave impacts of products or processes, from raw material procurement

through disposal. Life-cycle methodologies are somewhat subjective and can be resource intensive.

These methodologies are described in ISO 14040-14048.

Pollution Prevention

or Waste

Minimization Audits

Used to identify opportunities to reduce or eliminate pollution at the source and to identify recycling

options. Requires a fairly rigorous assessment of facility operations. These audits typically do not

examine off-site impacts.

Process Flow

Diagrams

Used to allow an organization to visualize and understand how work gets accomplished and how its

work processes can be improved.

Process Hazard

Analyses

Used to identify and assess potential impacts associated with unplanned releases of hazardous

materials. Methodology in common use due to Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) Process

Safety Management regulations. Typically employs team approach to identify and rank hazards.

Project Safety/Hazard

Reviews

Used to assess and mitigate potential safety hazards associated with new or modified projects.

Methodologies in common use. Typically do not focus on environmental issues.

Risk Assessments Used to assess potential health and/or environment risks typically associated with chemical exposure.

Variety of qualitative and quantitative methodologies in common use.

Techniques and Data Sources for Identifying and EvaluatingEnvironmental Aspects

As shown in Exhibit 5-2: Selected Techniques and Data Sources for Identifying and EvaluatingEnvironmental Aspects and Impacts, there are numerous techniques and data sources to assist you in iden-tifying and evaluating environmental aspects and impacts at your facility. You may already have experience us-ing some of these techniques at your shipyard. Note that much of the data you have collected to date will beuseful as you identify environmental aspects and determine their significance.

Exhibit 5-2: Selected Techniques and Data Sources for Identifying andEvaluating Environmental Aspects and Impacts

EMS Implementation Guide for the Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Industry

Module5-2 Environmental Aspects

A recommended approach, which is described in detail below, is based on creating process flow diagrams. Thisapproach is recommended because it will give you a thorough understanding of all of your facility’s processes.

The Process Flow DiagramTechnique

Process flow diagrams allow facilities to visualizeand understand how processes work and how theymight be improved. As illustrated in Examples 5-1through 5-21 later in this module, a process flowdiagram visually depicts:

• Inputs of the process or activity, which includeenergy and other resources consumed andraw materials and chemicals used;

• Step-by-step process flows; • Decision points (e.g., on alternate methods);

and • Process outputs, which include products or

services, air emissions, noise, odor, radiation,wastewater discharges, solid waste, and haz-ardous wastes.

As an EMS tool, they help facilities to identify inputs(such as chemicals, raw materials, and otherresources used), outputs (including products,wastes, air emissions, etc.), and decision points andinteractions with other processes, and thereby helpto identify environmental aspects and impacts.

Using this technique to identify environmental as-pects involves the following tasks, each of which isdescribed in greater detail below:

• Subdividing your facility into appropriateunits, i.e., activities and processes, forsubsequent environmental aspects data collec-tion;

• Developing process flow diagrams, which areessentially material balance sheets (of allinputs and outputs) of the activities andprocesses;

• Identifying environmental aspects by transfer-ring the input and output information fromthe process flow diagrams to environment as-pect identification forms;

• Determining SEAs by evaluating the identifiedenvironmental aspects against pre-establishedsignificance determination criteria to arrive atthe list of SEAs, upon which other elements ofan EMS will be based;

• Documenting your approach to environmen-tal aspects identification and significancedetermination in a written procedure; and

• Reviewing and revising environmental aspectsover time.

Subdividing Your Facility intoAppropriate Units

The appropriate level of subdivision will be one thatbalances the need to capture all relevant input/out-put information with a desire to avoid having toomuch unwieldy information, much of which mightbe redundant. Also keep in mind that the schemefor subdividing the facility should mirror how thefacility is divided in terms of staffing andsupervision. The people who manage and work inthese areas will ultimately take ownership of theSEAs, work instructions, and monitoring and meas-urement that result from this process.

Exhibit 5-3: A List of Common Activities andProcesses with Functional Areas at Shipbuildingand Ship Repair Facilities, identifies more than 25common activities and processes across 6 generalfunctional areas at a typical shipbuilding and shiprepair facility.

Remember to look at services as well as products.While the need to examine on-site operationsmight be obvious, you also should consider identi-fying aspects of activities that might be done off-site(such as servicing equipment at a customer’s site).Similarly, the environmental aspects of theproducts, vendors, and contractors you use may beless obvious, but many will be appropriate toconsider. Aspects may also result from pastactivities, such as spills. You may want to refer tothe defined scope of your EMS (see Module 1) indetermining the set of processes and activities forwhich aspects will be identified.



Developing Process FlowDiagrams Use a team to diagram the inputs and outputs ofthe activities and processes into which you havesubdivided your facility. At a minimum, the teamshould include the process “owner.” Probably itshould also include members of the CrossFunctional Team (CFT) who have becomespecialists in environmental aspect identification.

Identifying Environmental Aspects

If you have done a thorough job of diagrammingthe inputs and outputs of all of the appropriate ac-tivities and processes at your facility, the next step iseasy. Transfer the information from each flow

diagram onto a separate environmental aspect iden-tification form (such as the one provided withExhibit 5-5: Procedure for EnvironmentalAspects, Objectives and Targets, and Programs(EP-003) as Identification and SignificanceDetermination of Environmental Aspects andSetting Objectives and Targets (Aspects Form)(EF-003.01)) for each process or activity. This infor-mation should be arranged on the environmentalaspect identification form by input subcategory(e.g., supplies, chemicals, energy use, or water use)and by output subcategory (e.g., air emissions,noise/odor/radiation, water discharges, solid/resid-ual wastes, storm water discharges, or spills).Having these subcategories on the form should re-duce the likelihood of mistakenly neglectingrelevant aspect information.

Determining SignificantEnvironmental Aspects

Determining which aspects have significantimpacts, and therefore will be included in your EMSas SEAs, is one of the most crucial steps in EMSplanning. It can be one of the most challenging aswell as one of the most rewarding. Decisions youmake in this step will affect many other system ele-ments, such as setting objectives and targets, estab-lishing operational controls, and definingmonitoring needs. Careful planning of this activitywill pay dividends later.

Determining which aspects are significant involvessome subjective decisions. For this reason, you willachieve more balanced results by having a CFT thatrepresents different job functions. This will providea cross-section of operational experience and differ-ent perspectives.

Your CFT should carefully define the criteria thatwill be used to determine which environmental as-pects are significant. The criteria presented beloware intended to achieve a balance betweenstructure and flexibility. They are a starting pointthat you can use to customize your own criteria.

• An obvious initial criterion is whether theaspect is subject to environmental regulations-all of these aspects, as defined by broad scien-tific and legislative consensus, are significant.A closely related condition is whether anaspect is the subject of facility policy, goals, orvoluntary commitments. For example, manyfacilities have established energy-use, water-use, or waste reduction goals and targetsbecause it also makes good business sense. Ifthese facility policies/goals apply to your facili-ty, then the associated aspects should be con-sidered significant.

• A second criterion to consider involves theviews of interested parties. One of thecommitments of your environmental policymust be communication with externalstakeholders. There are a variety of communi-ty concerns that might affect your designationof a particular activity as a significant aspect.These may include issues other thanpollution. Some examples are the noise levelor odor produced by your facility; increasedtraffic caused by your business; and increasedlight needed for your operations. Aspects thatthe community considers important (forexample, aspects that the community haslodged complaints about) should be labeled assignificant in your EMS.

• A third criterion is whether the aspect hasgood technical and financial potential for pol-lution prevention improvements (such as thereduced use of water, energy, or hazardousmaterials). Pollution prevention is also includ-ed in your environmental policy. The determi-nation that makes for a particular aspect underthis criterion is highly subject to the specificcircumstances and values of your facility andcommunity. For example, a high rate of wateruse would be of higher concern in a desert re-gion than in a region where water is moreplentiful. The determination that your CFTmakes is based on your judgment and your fa-cility’s specific circumstances.

• A final criterion is one that your CFT cus-tomizes for your facility. A commonly usedapproach relies on scoring environmentalaspects based on magnitude, frequency, toxic-ity, and duration.



Where appropriate, individual aspects can begrouped. For example, if energy use is listed as anenvironmental aspect for several processes, it mayalso be a facility-wide concern. The CFT could listenergy on each process-specific aspect form andthen record the aspect and significance determina-tion on a facility-wide form to indicate it as a facility-wide concern.

As shown in Exhibit 5-4: SignificantEnvironmental Aspects as a Basis forOperational Controls and Objectives andTargets, SEAs serve as the basis for furtherplanning of your EMS. In a subsequent step, eachSEA will be assigned an objective. That is, it eitherbecomes the subject of: controls, which areongoing; improvements, which have targets thatspecify how much can be achieved and by when; oran investigation leading to improvements (Module6), which will have targets that indicate when studyresults will be issued.

Each improvement (and investigation) objectivewill be associated with an EMP that specifies who isresponsible for what outcomes and by when(Module 7). In addition, your facility’s SEAs willhave key characteristics that are monitored andmeasured (Module 14), and also will be the basisfor determining where operational controls are re-quired (Module 12).

Documenting Your Approach

You need to describe your approach to identifyingaspects and determining their significance in theform of a written procedure. You can modifyExhibit 5-5: Procedure for EnvironmentalAspects, Objectives and Targets, and Programs(EP-003), to develop that procedure. Variations onthis procedure are provided in Appendix D—Environmental Aspect/Impact Ranking. Keep the re-sulting information up-to-date, so that the potentialaspects of new activities, products, and services arefactored into your targets and objectives (seeModule 6) and operational controls (see Module 12).

Reviewing and RevisingEnvironmental Aspects OverTime

Regularly revisiting your environmental aspects andobjectives, as described in Module 6, is an essentialstep in developing an EMS that achieves the goal ofcontinuous improvement. The regular review of as-pects can be used to change the priorities you setlast time, or it can be used to examine a part of yourfacility’s activities that you set aside last time. Theregular review can be part of a planned “phasing in”process, wherein different parts of your facility’soperations are reviewed until all your facility’s activ-ities are included in your EMS. The regular reviewof aspects is the foundation for your facility’scontinuing improvement.

Aspect Identification

7.0 Procedures7.1 Procedure for Environmental Aspect Identification

7.1.1 The facility Cross Functional Team (CFT), led by the Environmental ManagementRepresentative (EMR) or designee, is responsible for completing the Identificationand Significance Determination of Environmental Aspects and Setting Objectivesand Targets (Aspects Form) (EF-003.01) for each core process and supporting activi-ty. If possible, members of the CFT will conduct a physical inspection whencompleting the form. The completed form is a process flow diagram of a process oractivity and is used to identify environmental aspects.

7.1.2 At a minimum, the CFT will review and revise the completed forms, by means ofphysical inspection, as necessary at issuance, annually, and before and immediatelyfollowing implementation of new or modified processes/activities.

7.1.3 All environmental aspects are evaluated for significance as defined in the sectionbelow, Procedure for Determination of Significant Environmental Aspects.

7.1.4 The following procedure is used to fill out the Aspects Form (EF-003.01).

7.1.5 Creating the process flow diagram consists of identifying all raw materials,chemicals, and utilities used as inputs and all outputs produces as products and by-products. Outputs are all products, wastes produced, recycled materials, water dis-charges, and air emissions known for the process(es).

7.1.6 When identifying inputs and outputs, all modes of operation will be considered be-cause startup, shutdown, or emergency operations might introduce additionalaspects to the process. When doing the diagrams, the team will make notes of otherpotentially useful information such as the quantity or volume used per unit time,where available. These diagrams will be improved over time with specific data to al-low material balances in the long term, if this is not possible initially.

To assist with these diagrams, the CFT shall consider the following potential inputsand outputs:

• Inputs

• Supplies: Enter the major, non-chemical supplies used in the process.

• Chemical: Enter any chemical materials used in the process.

• Energy Use: Enter energy type and usage. (Levels are relative to the facility.)

• Water Use: Enter water type (e.g., city, well, storm, process, chilled) andusage. (Levels are relative to the facility.)

• Other Inputs: Enter inputs that are not covered clearly in othercategories.

• Outputs

• Air Emissions: List all air emissions whether they are drawn directlythrough a stack or are discharged into the room and escape as fugitiveemissions.

• Noise/Odor/Radiation: Include noise and odor as an air emission if poten-tially noticeable outside the facility and list any potential radiation emittedfrom the facility.



• Water Discharges: Enter all wastewater streams that discharge directly tostorm or sanitary sewer systems or surface waters. Containerizedwastewater should be included in the waste section.

• Solid/Residual Wastes: Wastes are any materials intended to be discardedor disposed of, whether regulated or not, and include liquids, solids, andgases. Also include recycled materials, returnable containers, and chemi-cal by-products under this category.

• Stormwater Discharges: List all stormwater discharges from all process areas.

• Spills: Enter all potential spills that might occur in all process areas.

7.2 Procedure for Determination of Significant Environmental Aspects (SEAs)

7.2.1 Where appropriate, individual aspects can be grouped. For example, if theconsumption of energy is listed as an environmental aspect in several areas, theCFT can group these listings such that consumption of energy appears just once ona facility-wide form.

7.2.2 The following criteria will be used to determine significance and are listed in theAspects Form (EF-003.01):

1. Legal Requirements/Voluntary Commitments/Company Policy: Subject to specifi-cally relevant legislation, regulation, and/or permit requirements that address sig-nificant impacts to the environment. This will likely include aspects associatedwith processes and activities if (1) environmental regulations specify controls andconditions, (2) information must be provided to the authorities, and/or (3) thereare, or may be, periodic inspections or enforcement actions taken by the authori-ties. Potential aspects that are subject to environmental regulations in the eventof incidents will be recognized as significant when such an event occurs. A closelyrelated condition is whether an aspect is the subject to or associated withenvironmentally-related facility goals, directives, policies, or subject to or associat-ed with voluntary covenants to which the facility had committed.

2. Community Concern: Subject to or associated with community concerns, such asthose previously expressed in the form of complaints or critical inquiry.

3. Pollution Prevention Potential: Based on technical and business conditions, has ahigh potential for pollution prevention or resource-use reduction.

4. Potential Impact to the Environment: Associated with potential impact to the en-vironment from high environmental loading due to one or more of the following:

a. Toxicity (compositional characterization of materials and wastes)

b. Amounts (volumes and masses of emissions, waste, or releases)

c. Amounts (consumption of renewable and non-renewable resources)

d. Frequency of episodes

e. Severity of actual or potential impacts

(Note: Additional examples of how to determine significance are provided inAppendix D—Environmental Aspects/Impacts Ranking.)





Using the Significance Determination portion of the Aspects Form (EF-003.01), theCFT, or a subset thereof, shall evaluate, each identified aspect to determine whetherit is significant. The environmental aspects will be considered to be “significant” ifthe aspect has an impact on the environment and meets one or more of the fourcriteria. For criteria 1 through 4, using your best judgment, backed up by research ifpossible, put Yes, No, or Not Applicable [NA] in the appropriate column on theAspects Form [EF-003.01]. If any of the columns are assigned a Yes, indicate “S” forsignificant in the appropriate column for that aspect. Otherwise, indicate “N” fornot significant. Provide the rationale for S or N in the appropriate column on theAspects Form [EF-003.01].

7.3 Establishing and Maintaining Objectives and Targets

7.3.1 The CFT shall establish and maintain environmental objectives and targets for allsignificant aspects. Objectives and targets shall be consistent with the [Facility’sName] environmental policy and shall be one of three types: control; improve; orinvestigate. The environmental objectives and targets for each process shall berecorded using the last two columns of the Aspects Form (EF-003.01) for eachprocess. (They can then be summarized on a form similar to Example 6-1:Objectives and Targets Organized by Category, for the facility as a whole. Foreach SEA, the organization will establish an appropriate objective and target.) Thereare three types of objectives represented as follows:

C = Control or Maintain

I = Improve

S = Study or Investigate

Guidance regarding use of these objectives is provided below for use by the CFT:

• Control or Maintain–is an appropriate objective for SEAs that are the sub-ject of environmental regulations because the environmental policy statesthat we will comply with the law. In these cases, the objective will be tomaintain conformance with operational controls, such as procedures andwork instructions that apply to those significant aspects. The target willbe ongoing.

• Improve–is appropriate for SEAs that our facility goals commit us toimproving upon. For example, energy- or water-use reductions that arenot required by law but fall within our commitment to pollution preven-tion. Improvement objectives also can be used for SEAs that have regula-tory drivers and environmental improvement goals. For example, wehave regulatory requirements and fugitive emission reduction goals forour VOC emissions. Copper in storm water effluent is another examplebecause we wish to reduce discharge levels below the limits set in ourpermits. Thus, the objective for these will be C and I (that is, maintaincompliance and reduce emissions).

• Study or Investigate–is appropriate in cases where the CFT thinksimprovement will be feasible and beneficial, but study is needed to deter-



mine how much improvement can be achieved and timeframes that arefeasible. The objective will be to study the alternatives by a target date inpreparation for later setting an improvement objective (or dropping theobjective if the study reveals that the changes are not financially, techno-logically, or logistically feasible).

7.3.2 The CFT is also responsible for developing and recommending potential new envi-ronmental objectives to top management. In identifying potential new objectives,the CFT considers the following:

• Environmental policy;

• SEAs (especially those that pose chemical risk);

• Applicable laws and regulations and potential future laws and regulations;

• Practical business criteria, such as the potential costs and benefits of pursu-ing a particular environmental objective and our commitment to pollutionprevention; and

• The views of employees and other interested parties.

7.3.3 When developing and recommending objectives, the CFT should consider thenumber of columns that were marked Yes on Aspects Form (EF-003.01). Thesecolumns relate to the significance criteria established by this EMS (legal/facilityrequirements, community concerns, pollution prevention potential, and/or poten-tial impact on the environment). Those SEAs with two or more Yes rankings willlikely be good candidates for control, improvement, or investigation.

7.3.4 Performance against objectives and targets shall be reviewed at least every sixmonths by the CFT and reported at the management review meeting (see EP-006,Environmental Management System Management Review). The managementreview shall endorse the facility environmental objectives and targets.

7.4 Establishing and Maintaining Environmental Management Programs

7.4.1 The CFT shall establish and maintain environmental management programs forachieving the objectives and targets developed for the significant environmental as-pects identified and updated every six months.

7.4.2 Environmental management programs shall identify the means, time frames andthose responsible for achieving associated objectives and targets. Responsibility willbe identified at each relevant function and level of the facility.




8.0 General Rules8.1 The CFT shall include representation from all appropriate functional areas and

departments.

8.2 The environmental aspects and significant aspects associated with the operations of semi-permanent on-site contractors are covered by this procedure.

8.3 Interested parties include employees and the community.

8.4 The environmental management programs that address the following areas should be creat-ed if applicable objectives and targets are developed:

8.4.1 Compliance Assurance

8.4.2 Pollution Prevention/Waste Minimization

8.4.3 Energy Management

8.4.4 Materials Management

9.0 FrequencyThis procedure will be repeated at least annually. More frequent updates will be conducted for newprojects or processes that affect the list of the facility’s significant aspects.

10.0 RecordsThe originals of completed Aspects Forms (EF-003.01) are maintained by the EMR or designee.
