Greening the Government Through Leadership in Environmental Management
This executive order directs all federal agencies to integrate environmental accountability into daily operations and long-term planning, setting specific reduction targets for toxic chemical releases (40% by 2006), hazardous waste generation (50% by 2006), and procurement of ozone-depleting substances (phase-out by 2010). It establishes environmental management systems, compliance audit programs, and interagency coordination mechanisms while revoking five earlier environmental executive orders.
