Abstract: This 1996 Electronics Industry Environmental Roadmap continues ongoing efforts
introduced in 1992 by MCC, working in concert with a diverse group of electronics and information
technology manufacturers and their suppliers, and supported by the Advanced Research Projects
Agency (ARPA) of the U.S. Department of Defense under a contract to Wright Labs. This
year’s Roadmap updates and expands upon the top priorities from the 1994 Electronics Industry
Environmental Roadmap, produced by MCC with the participation and support of a wide range
of companies and associations. One objective is to look at the priorities identified in the 1994
Roadmap and, through a review process, select the top priority issues that need attention in the
near term. The discussion and recommendations in this document are intended to provide an
agenda for a set of activities that can be launched in the near term, executed through a focused
program of cross-industry collaboration, that provide a basis for the next generation of
environmental management in the electronics industry. Ultimately, the results will manifest
themselves at the bottom line—of the corporation, the industry, and the environment.
This document meets its expected scope and MCC’s standards of technical quality.
