We worked with The City of Columbus’ Department of Public Utilities (DPU) to develop and implement a first-in-class environmental management system (EMS) that provides the structure for long-term environmental regulatory compliance, and for reducing overall environmental impacts. Based on ISO 14001 standard, an internationally known voluntary standard for environmental management, the EMS addresses DPU’s numerous facilities and programs. In 2014, the DPU became the first public utility in Ohio to obtain ISO 14001:2004.
