EPA Ends Performance Track
The National Environmental Performance Track Program is terminated effective May 14, 2009, the EPA announced late Thursday afternoon.
On March 16, 2009, EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson issued a memorandum halting the Performance Track Program. Jackson's memo was followed by a memorandum from Chuck Kent, director, Office of Policy Economics and Innovation, dated March 25, 2009, which provided more details about the termination, including that the low priority for routine inspections incentive is no longer in effect.
Thursday's notice in the Federal Register signifies the program's final deathblow. It also gives public notice that the low priority for routine inspections incentive for Performance Track facilities is also terminated.
