Carbon/Manufactured Graphite

 
NEMA's Carbon/Manufactured Graphite Committee, part of the Environment, Health and Safety Council, informs and advises the Carbon/Manufactured Graphite (CMG) Section member companies about existing and impending government environment, health, and safety (EHS) policies, laws, and regulations that affect the CMG community.

Committee goals are to:

  • Inform and advise the Carbon/Manufactured Graphite (CMG) section member companies about existing and impending government environmental, health and safety (EHS) policies, laws and regulations that affect the CMG industry
  • Coordinate and provide leadership for CMG section actions with respect to EHS matters in dealing with federal, state, and international governments.  
  • Represent the "voice" of the CMG industry before the various federal, state, and international agencies.  
  • Represent the CMG industry's concerns before all standards-making and non-governmental bodies addressing EHS issues of real or potential concern to the CMG industry.

Strategies:

  • Engage in an active interaction with federal, state and international governmental rule-making bodies to ensure that laws and regulations reflect industry concerns.  
  • Assume an active role on EHS matters before all standards making and non government bodies.  
  • Through an active NEMA program, define and pursue all industry EHS interests and positions on all pertinent documents affecting CMG products.

These strategies are executed by:

  • Monitoring all EHS activities impacting the industry, to identify key trends and issues.  
  • Identifying the rule-making schedule and the issues to be addressed and formulate a consensus position with all interested parties, associations and industries.  
  • Ensuring NEMA company representatives participate in all public dialog charged with evaluating and recommending changes that affect CMG products and production facilities.  
  • Issuing timely and technically supportable industry views on key issues.
