Collaboration
EPA's Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) Program served a broad group of customers, including:
- state regulators,
- EPA program offices and regions,
- municipalities,
- vendors,
- trade organizations, and
- others.
These customers collaborated with the ETV Program to jointly fund or provide in-kind support for verification testing. Collaborative support included such things as:
- funding,
- field testing,
- analytical services,
- outreach, and
- testing locations.
This support from collaborators, combined with their technical input, helped raise the quality and relevance of ETV information. Program personnel, verification organizations, and stakeholders worked together to identify mutually beneficial collaborations. ETV confirmed that its collaborators use ETV information to support technology decisions and regulatory development.
The ETV program engaged in the following collaborations to provide high-quality performance information to technology end-users:
