POLLUTION PREVENTION INVESTMENT FUND<br />

The <strong>Army</strong> Office of the Director of <strong>Environmental</strong> Programs (ODEP)<br />

initiated this five-year program in 1997. The Pollution Prevention Investment<br />

Fund (P2IF) is a component of the <strong>Army</strong>’s strategy for reducing the overall<br />

cost of compliance with legally mandated environmental requirements on<br />

<strong>Army</strong> operations. The Fund emphasizes cost-effective pollution prevention (P2)<br />

initiatives that support the Department of Defense Measures of Merit, reduce<br />

hazardous or non-hazardous material use, and reduce or eliminate<br />

environmental requirements at <strong>Army</strong> installations and facilities.<br />

The centrally managed and resourced fund provides a mechanism to focus<br />

limited resources on high-return P2 investments that lead to permanent<br />

source reduction or material process change.<br />

The P2IF program:<br />

• Provides actual cost-benefit data on P2 processes.<br />

• Evaluates performance of P2 systems.<br />

• Assesses <strong>Army</strong>wide applicability of P2 technologies.<br />

• Distributes success stories and lessons learned.
