Environmentally Preferable Purchasing

Environmentally preferable purchasing, or EPP, refers to buying products and services with reduced effects on human health and the environment.

EPP Rapid Research Service

Many organizations, cities, counties, states and the federal government are in the process of developing internal procedures to incorporate EPP criteria into their purchasing decisions. This research takes staff time. PPRC is pleased to be able to assist with the process by offering the EPP Rapid Research Service.

EPP Rapid Research Service is provided by PPRC and is funded by an EPA grant. PPRC will provide up to 5 hours of research into the environmental aspects of a specific purchasing question. See the list below for previous questions and responses.
