FPA Publishes Environmental Issues Index

Issued on a quarterly basis, the FPA Environmental Issues Index provides a summary of regulatory issues that may affect the flexible packaging industry. The Index also details the activities of the association to protect the industry from the possible adverse affects of these issues.

The second quarter Environmental Issues Index, published in April 2006, provides status updates on issues such as air and water pollution, hazardous substance, and emergency preparedness. The FPA Environmental Issues Index is available to FPA members only.

The FPA Technology and Regulatory Affairs Committee monitors these and other federal environmental issues of concern to FPA members and the flexible packaging industry. For more information on the FPA Environmental Issues Index or the FPA Technology and Regulatory Affairs Committee, visit FPA at www.flexpack.org or contact the association at (410) 694-0800.
