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.
