States ERP Consortium:
A partnership of states for environmental results

The States ERP Consortium was formed in 2006 to promote the Environmental Results Program (ERP). ERP is an integrated approach to addressing environmental problems associated with various business sectors that involves compliance assistance, facility self-certification, and statistically based performance assessment. While ERP has been used for business sectors having large numbers of small facilities, it is equally suited for use with larger facilities.

The primary goals of the States ERP Consortium are to:

• Share information and tools among states to help with ERP implementation;
• Expand support for ERP within states and EPA;
• Report and communicate ERP results to key audiences;
• Identify potential new applications for ERP; and
• Identify strategies to accelerate and achieve economies of scale in automating ERPs.
