The Council adopted the definition of sustainable development as stated in the original Brundtland Commission report: development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. The Council is a ground breaking partnership drawing leaders from industry, government, and environmental, labor and civil rights organizations, and is charged with developing bold, new approaches to integrate economic, environmental and social policies.

The Council transmitted its report to the President on March 7, 1996. The report is entitled Sustainable America: A New Consensus and has been hailed by leaders from the business, environmental, labor, civil rights, and government communities, as the first time in which consensus has been reached on critical economic, environmental, and social equity issues. At President Clinton's press conference in March at which he accepted the Council's report, he stated "...When I first appointed the Council almost three years ago, some of them knew each other only as adversaries. But with this report, they have shown us the power of partnership. They have demonstrated that when business, environmentalists, and government work together in good faith we can pursue simultaneously the goals of economic prosperity, social equity, and environmental quality."

At the heart of the Council's recommendations is the conviction that economic, environmental, and social equity issues are inextricably linked and must be considered together, and, that to achieve sustainability, institutions and individuals must adopt this new way of thinking. Eco-Industrial development is part of this new thinking.

The Council has now completed its first eight months of implementation, and will be continuing its work during the Clinton Administration's second term. For more information about the Council, it's upcoming work, or to let us know about interesting work going on in your community, please contact the PCSD at (202) 408-5296. PCSD documents may be ordered toll-free at (800) 363-3732. The PCSD homepage, now being updated, may be found at www.whitehouse.gov/PCSD.

The workshop involved many presentations and break out sessions. The Council wishes to thank all of the community presenters. We learned a great deal about Eco-Industrial Parks and your communities, and commend you for leading the way to a new paradigm for economic and community development.

Unlike most workshops that take place in hotels and conference centers, this workshop was truly hosted by the community. Great appreciation goes out to Barbara Schwenk for all her help with logistics, to Trinity United Methodist Church and the Kiptopeke Elementary school for allowing us to use your facilities, to the Northampton High School Chorus and Ms. Jo Ann Spady for providing entertainment and inspiration at the EIP Expo, and to Virginia's Center for Innovative Technology for its financial support of the EIP Expo.

This new approach to economic development provides a unique opportunity for communities to create jobs and protect the environment in a way that respects basic community values. Although the PCSD's recommendation grows out of its support of four demonstration projects, many other communities around the country are also working on eco-industrial development. Because all the communities face significant challenges to move EIPs from theory into practice, the PCSD's New National Opportunities Task Force, in conjunction with the Innovative State, Local and Regional Approaches Task Force, convened a workshop of practitioners working on EIPs. The workshop was designed to (1) provide a status report on eco-industrial projects around the country, (2) increase the potential for success for all EIP efforts, (3) identify key issues and how communities are addressing them, and (4) discuss strategies for marshaling the necessary resources, expertise, and investment to move forward.

Co-sponsored by the PCSD, the Town of Cape Charles and Northampton County, Virginia, the workshop brought together representatives from 15 communities, businesses, resource organizations and federal, state and local governments (See community list inset and more detailed descriptions starting on page 10). The workshop was held in conjunction with the ground breaking for the Port of Cape Charles Sustainable Technologies Industrial Park.

B. Findings

Workshop participants offered many excellent observations and suggestions for advancing eco-industrial development, which will be detailed in a subsequent proceedings document. Key findings and recommendations are summarized here:

PCSD interest and leadership have legitimized a new way of looking at economic development that balances a community's economic, environmental and equity needs. According to workshop participants, PCSD has begun to meet its goal of building bridges among competing interests but has not yet completed the task.

There are different models of eco-industrial development. Examples from the workshop varied widely: (1) a zero-emissions eco-industrial park, where businesses locate at the same site, (2) a virtual eco-industrial park, where businesses form a loose affiliation or network of related regional companies, and (3) eco-development, where nonindustrial establishments apply industrial ecology principles. The examples also show that eco-industrial development may be driven by a community, a local government, a nonprofit organization or by business. Whatever the model or driver, participants generally agreed that eco-industrial development requires broad support and will benefit from collaborative strategies.

The role of the community has been important in nearly every case study. Public involvement has been central for most communities in developing a vision and plan, although in several communities local government, businesses and/or consultants have played a more central role. Those projects that have involved citizens early in the process have been able to rally the community around a common objective -- creating jobs, protecting the environment and preserving community social values. In general, however, communities lack the technical expertise or resources needed to develop their site's industrial ecology, design their baseline study, attract businesses and successfully manage an EIP. For this reason, they have looked to federal, state, and local resources to help launch their projects. In doing so, they have welcomed federal support, but would prefer that federal and/or state resources were consolidated to reduce transaction costs. Participants also suggest that political and community support has been needed to provide visibility and credibility to their planning and fund raising efforts.

EIPs need to attract a variety of tenants. Workshop participants recognize that EIPs will need to attract and nurture small businesses, incubator companies, local enterprises and environmental technology firms, in addition to any large corporate tenants they can attract.

Some environmental regulations discourage businesses from co-locating or partnering. Removing barriers to waste exchanges and allowing air emissions bubbling and trading at a particular site or within a region were two issues specifically identified by participants.

Although not yet proven in practice, workshop participants strongly believe business can improve performance and save money (i.e., eco-efficiency) by participating in eco-industrial parks. The belief is based on the promise of synergies, economies of scale, and potential reductions in risk and liability offered by EIPs.

Communication among practitioners should occur regularly and the exchange of information made easy. Participants agreed that sharing challenges, strategies and successes is critical to further progress.

C. Recommended Next Steps

Step 1) PCSD should maintain a leadership role. Participants believe that PCSD serves a unique role that no other current organization can easily fill, namely, the ability to bring all stakeholders to the table as equal partners.

Step 2) Formalize the network of people working on eco-industrial development. Create an EIP association to continue building networks of current and potential EIP communities, provide technical support, and develop outreach to businesses and the financial community.

Step 3) A clearinghouse for information on eco-industrial development should be established. The clearinghouse could be a central location for literature and a World Wide Web Site. PCSD would be important to helping it get started, but would not itself need to host the clearinghouse.

Step 4) Easy community access to government-provided information and startup capital is critical. Attendees strongly recommend that the federal government coordinate with state and local governments and provide a one-stop resource center that more efficiently meet community needs. Funds for the one stop center could be drawn from a variety of supporting agencies.

Step 5) The financial services industry, in partnership with business, government and others, should develop a toolkit of financing strategies for use by communities.

Step 6) The PCSD should involve its own business members and other business representatives in creating support for EIPs. Businesses should be involved in (1) helping the financial community ensure that loans are available for all stages in the development of EIPs, including design, startup and strategic planning; (2) developing a dialogue with the financial services community about the safety and benefits of EIPs, Brownfields and Sustainable Communities as investment opportunities, and (3) providing data from existing pollution prevention and waste exchange efforts to estimate cost savings of an industrial ecosystem approach versus a traditional development approach.

Step 7) EPA, with support of PCSD, should identify and overcome regulatory barriers to hazardous waste exchanges. This could be done by creating a demonstration project for needed regulatory flexibility under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act or Clean Air Act. The demonstration could be part of an existing Brownfield, enterprise zone, or Community XL project.

Step 8) A strong applied research program is needed to support EIPs and industrial ecology generally.

Step 9) Eco-industrial parks should be an important component of Brownfields redevelopment strategies and future legislation.

Step 10) The Joint Center for Sustainable Communities, in cooperation with PCSD, should educate local and state political leaders about the opportunities provided by the eco-industrial development paradigm.

Step 11) Hold another workshop on Eco-industrial parks in the Spring to continue the process begun at Cape Charles. Work with Brownsville, Texas to hold a follow up conference in March 1997. Brownsville is planning to hold a workshop for businesses that can either locate or support their eco-industrial development. PCSD should support this effort.

This new approach to economic development provides a unique opportunity for communities to create jobs and protect the environment in a way that respects basic community values. Although the PCSD's recommendation grows out of its support of four demonstration projects, many other communities around the country are also working on eco-industrial development. Because all the communities face significant challenges to move EIPs from theory into practice, the PCSD's New National Opportunities Task Force, in conjunction with the Innovative State, Local and Regional Approaches Task Force, convened a workshop of practitioners working on EIPs. The workshop was designed to (1) provide a status report on eco-industrial projects around the country, (2) increase the potential for success for all EIP efforts, (3) identify key issues and how communities are addressing them, and (4) discuss strategies for marshaling the necessary resources, expertise, and investment to move forward.

Co-sponsored by the PCSD, the Town of Cape Charles and Northampton County, Virginia, the workshop brought together representatives from 15 communities, and various businesses, resource organizations and federal, state and local governments (See community list inset and more detailed descriptions starting on page 10). The workshop was held in conjunction with the ground breaking for the Port of Cape Charles Sustainable Technologies Industrial Park.

The purposes of the workshop were to: (1) summarize and provide a status report on eco-industrial projects around the country, (2) increase support and the potential for success for all EIP efforts, (3) identify key issues and how communities are addressing them, and (4) discuss strategies for marshaling the necessary resources, expertise, and investment to move forward.

The workshop included short presentations from 15 communities that are at some stage of eco-industrial development. Presentations and group discussions were also held on (1) Forming an Industrial Ecosystem, (2) Recruiting new Firms and Retaining Existing Firms, (3) Governance and Management Structures, (4) Strategies for Successful Community Involvement, (5) Finance, and (6) Setting and Maintaining Performance Standards. Finally, participants discussed critical questions and next steps for promoting sustainable eco-industrial development.

To advance the dialogue about eco-industrial parks, workshop participants were asked to help generate a list of possible definitions of an "eco-industrial park." Following the workshop, participants were given an opportunity to vote on their first and second choice for a definition. Two definitions stood out in the voting of the 42 votes cast.

Receiving 15 first place votes and 19 total votes was:

"A community of businesses that cooperate with each other and with the local community to efficiently share resources (information, materials, water, energy, infrastructure and natural habitat), leading to economic gains, gains in environmental quality, and equitable enhancement of human resources for the business and local community."

Receiving 11 first place votes and 19 total votes was:

"An industrial system of planned materials and energy exchanges that seeks to minimize energy and raw materials use, minimize waste, and build sustainable economic, ecological and social relationships."

Brownsville Eco-Industrial Park -- Brownsville, Texas. The Brownsville project is based on a regional approach to materials exchange that will include connections to small businesses and agriculture. One key element is the design of an industri al process database to help in identifying potential linkages among existing and potential new companies.

Riverside Eco-Park -- Burlington, Vermont. The Riverside Eco-Park is an "ecological-industrial park" whose mission is to demonstrate and promote the commercialization of technologies that effectively utilize indigenous renewable resources that may be transferred to other communities that are interested in sustainable and ecologically sound development. The focus is on biomass energy production integrated with living systems and urban agriculture technologies on the principle of maximizing the uti lization of renewable resources to provide electricity and heat applied to living systems that add value to wastes and expand the ability to grow food and flowers locally. Projects integrating biomass energy, living technologies and urban agriculture can be applied to many sites throughout the world to retain existing or to develop new businesses that are challenged with issues of economical energy supply, food production, and waste disposal. Thus, technology transfer will be a very important feature of the Eco-Park.

Burnside Eco-Industrial Park -- Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. This is a six year multi-disciplinary, multi-institutional action research and education project involving an existing industrial park with cooperative partnerships among academic, gover nment, owners, developers, and tenants.

Port of Cape Charles Sustainable Technologies Industrial Park -- Cape Charles, Virginia. Managed by the Joint Industrial Development Authority of Northampton, the Park was designed as part of a comprehensive Sustainable Development Action Strateg y. The EIP will incorporate industrial ecology linkages such as recycled water and by-product exchanges. Solar Building Systems, a manufacturer of photovoltaic panels that convert sunlight to electricity is the first tenant to locate.

Civano Environmental Technologies Park -- Tucson, Arizona. An eighty acre commercial-industrial campus located within Civano, a 1,147 acre integrated development in Tucson's east side, is a private/public effort of Case Enterprises and the City of Tucson. The community will be the first major development in North America to unite Sustainable and New-Urban concepts in village planning. Civano will offer 3,000 homes in a full range of housing types and prices, extensive recreation and activities ce nters, a golf course, and green belts providing scenic pathways from homes to recreation and employment centers. The Environmental Technologies Park, which is planned as a center for sustainable technologies and practices, has begun construction for its first industrial tenant, Global Solar, a photo-voltaic cell manufacturer. All buildings in the park will be built to exacting "green" construction standards. Other firms currently in negotiation for relocation into the park include manufacturers of elec tric cars, wastewater/water purification systems, and passive solar water heaters.

Chattanooga, Tennessee -- The Volunteer Site. The site is 7,000 acres of land that was formerly a TNT manufacturing plant. Individual sites of up to 2,000 acres are available for use. ICI Americas Inc. has managed the site since 1953 and is inte rested in developing an eco-industrial park on the site. Targeted partners include warehouse/distribution companies, heavy and light manufacturers, companies that focus on environmental services, and other industries that re-manufacture and re-use existi ng products. The overall goal is to create over 10,000 jobs at the site by the year 2020 and create economic benefits by opening access through the plant and allowing local governments to use the facilities to provide services. ICI Americas is using the "clusters" approach to identify businesses that could share wastes as a way to attract and select tenants for the site. They have created a Business Development Center to assist in the recruitment of new businesses and plan to develop utility cost data to demonstrate how the eco-industrial park concept is cost competitive with other locations.

East Shore Eco-Industrial Park -- Oakland, California. The anchor for this EIP will be a resource recovery cluster encompassing reuse, recycling, remanufacturing, and composting companies. With this foundation, recruitment will target other tenants manufacturing from recycled feedstocks and renewable materials; firms making renewable energy equipment and systems; and environmental services ventures. The multi-county Economic Development Alliance for Business is sponsoring a project feasibility stu dy to start in early 1997.

Green Institute Eco-Industrial Park -- Minneapolis, Minnesota. This small EIP is undertaking a baseline study of more than 600 industrial companies in the vicinity of its 3.5 acre site. The baseline study will be used to promote material and energ y exchanges among these existing companies and to focus the tenant recruitment and business development efforts of the Green Institute's incubator program. The Green Institute project is also unique as a grassroots, neighborhood effort that incorporates environmental education and youth participation into many aspects of its programs.

Plattsburgh Eco-Industrial Park -- Plattsburgh, New York. With the assistance of Cornell University and U.S. Facilities Management, Inc., the Plattsburgh Airbase Redevelopment Corporation is designing an EIP for the 3500 acres of the decommissione d Air Force facility. The project emphasizes continuous improvement in economic and environmental performance through resource sharing, by-product exchanges, and an environmental management system conforming to ISO 14001. Elements of the EIP will inclu de new development by manufacturers and transportation firms; ecological, cultural, and heritage tourism; environmental technologies; biomass generators; multi-modal distribution; and several "environmental enhancements" connected to the regional eco-sys tem between Adirondack Park and Lake Champlain.

Raymond Green Eco-Industrial Park -- Raymond, Washington. The Raymond Green Industrial Park will be developed within a second growth coastal forest that will continue to be selectively harvested. The site encompasses the entire upper drainage bas in of Butte Creek, thus the water quality within the site can be uniquely managed. Targeted firms include those that can make use of local natural resources and have low impact manufacturing processes.

Skagit County Environmental Industrial Park -- Skagit County, Washington. In the Fall of 1995, a feasibility study for the EIP was completed that identified potential sites, potential tenants, the projects economic prospects, and components of th e EIP. It is expected that the park will include a recovery center built with energy efficient recycled content materials, manufacturing center, a community building, sales and marketing space, environmental businesses, and a closed loop system with mini mal effluent and emissions.

Shady Side Eco-Business Park -- Shady Side, Maryland. Key features for this park include the renovation of an existing facility in an underemployed and under served community; integration of successful community-based tools and approaches; and the demonstration of Business Ecology Round tables. The Round tables are an innovative series of workshops and tools designed to help business and community leaders integrate economic, social and environmental goals. Possible tenants include a micro brewer y, fish and shellfish aquaculture, marine exploration and technology, oil recycling, water reclamation, solar and renewable energy, and composting.

Stonyfield / Londonderry Eco-Industrial Park -- Londonderry, New Hampshire. Planners for the park are interested in using covenants to assure that industrial ecology is the model for future development. Using community and business input, Stonyf ield Farms Inc. and the Town of Londonderry are working to develop the project.

Trenton Eco-Industrial Complex -- Trenton, New Jersey. Trenton's EIP will not necessarily be a physical place, but likely a network of businesses with numerous opportunities for linkages. The Eco-Industrial Roundtable - a multi stakeholder steeri ng committee guides the activities of the project. Cornell University is conducting a baseline assessment to determine possible linkages between existing and future businesses.

EIP's key features.

• More than 1300 acres zoned for heavy industrial development. Approximately 60 businesses already operate within the ecological industrial park's primary boundary.
• Represents the only Empowerment Zone City grantee with a designed ecological industrial park.
• Pursuing a process to redefine the area's regulatory framework through EPA Project XL for Communities.
• Inter-modal transportation opportunities and mass transit commuting options which are intimately tied to economy redevelopment.
• Establishing business information networks within the park to expand collaborative efforts and material reuse opportunities.
• Playing a more active role in identifying industry education and training skill requirements and in establishing or coordinating linkages with training providers.
• Provides the State of Maryland to model a new voluntary compliance approach to Brownfields redevelopment.
• Completing a master planning exercise which will produce site ownership and environmental quality matrices, electric and natural gas line grids, inter-modal transportation and commuter alternatives, and infrastructure suggestions and priorities tied t o promoting sustainable business practices.

What constitutes success?

• Demonstrate that environmentally motivated business networking leads to greater productive efficiency by lowering direct and indirect operational costs, while improving the cross-media environmental conditions of the site
• Preserve critical areas and decrease cross-media emissions and environmental impacts, improving the quality of living for neighboring residents.
• Create 2500 new jobs with above average wage scales over the next 5-10 years.

EIP linkages.
Hold multi-stakeholder contact and conferences, for example, to consider detailed input/output information for consideration in a material reuse exchange. Explore connections to targeted waste exchanges and to recruit potential environmentally technolog y oriented firms which may be able to use the existing waste streams and/or provides the raw material feedstock. We also are exploring the possibility of joint treatment facilities to improve the economics of scale related to these types of investments.

Recruiting process.
The recruitment and redevelopment strategy for Fairfield provides a unique focus and allows for considerably more opportunities to leverage State and Federal funds than more traditional development approaches. In addition to the obvious benefits associat ed with the Empowerment Zone, The Ecological Industrial Park targets its recruitment toward three specific company types. As a complement to the recruitment plan, BDC also had instituted an active existing business expansion and infrastructure improvemen t program. It is this combination of approaches that truly delineates the Eco-Industrial Park concept. The types of businesses being recruited or targeted for expansion include:

• Clean Manufacturing or Commercial Uses Which Practice Environmental Responsibility and Leadership: 1-3 significant size companies (350-500 employees) to expand the industrial/ commercial base of the area.
• Environmental Technology Providers: 8-10 environmental technology providers (50-100) employees) to expand the pollution prevention, business networking, and closed loop capabilities associated with the Eco-park.
• "The Multipliers" or Service and Other Environmental/Recycling Companies: 10+ small service oriented company's (10-50 employees) to fill in strategic needs created by the increased markets and demand generated through the Business expansion.
• Expanding Existing Employers: improve the regulatory environmental and operational conditions to help stimulate business expansion of existing firms, especially among those firms which possess excess property.

Resources available.
We currently receive direct funding through the Empower Baltimore Management Corporation which distributes funds from the HUD Empowerment Zone Grant. The Fairfield EIP also received funds through the Baltimore Development Corporation. Outstanding fundin g proposals for specific activities outlined in the EIP Strategic Plan have been or will soon be submitted to the Economic Development Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, and Maryland Department of Economic and Business Development, the M aryland Department of the Environment, and the Department of Energy. In addition, private funding is being pursued through local and national lending institutions, social investment and venture capital funds, local foundations, and EIP membership obligat ions.

Strategy to continue progressing.
Our comprehensive redevelopment strategy is illustrated by the attached exhibit.

What is missing?
Assistance is needed in the following areas:

• Secure and reliable site assessment information and support for Phase I site assessments.
• Information related to cost or efficiency improvements associated with environmental technology or pollution prevention integration.
• Creating significant and meaningful incentives to motivate firms to operate in a manner that would stimulate sustainable practice, i.e. market driven advantages for "green" or environmentally conscious manufacturing processes and products such as "pre ferable products" designation or public sector purchasing targets.
• Provide technical assistance or funding that would support the integration of pollution prevention, environmental technology, and material reuse integration, i.e. detailed input/output analyses which expose innovative ways to reuse resources.
• Provide collective waste water treatment, energy co-generation, and emission reduction models or strategies, analyses, or information.
• Provide funding for the creation of an eco-manufacturing research facility including education and training provisions to prepare workers for new occupational growth in environmental industries.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.

• To share ideas about conducting a wide variety of support activities which promote business expansion, job creation, and community redevelopment, while implementing the characteristics of an ecological industrial park.
• To share ideas and successes to demonstrate that economic growth can occur without having a greater negative impact on the environment.
• To build partnerships to ensure that the ecological industrial park concept becomes a traditional way of doing business in the 21st century.

Phone: (210) 546-1161
Fax: (210) 982-1876
E-Mail: bisn@triplesoft.com

EIP's key features:
The Brownsville project is based on a regional approach to materials exchange (regional "industrial symbiosis" (IS). Establishment of a defined "eco-industrial park" is considered as one possible component of regional IS, but not the driving force. Browns ville IS also is inclusive of small businesses and agriculture.

What constitutes success?
Project will yield an industrial IS "road map" identifying opportunities to increase the operating efficiencies of existing industries and opportunities for recruitment of new industry in the Brownsville region.

EIP linkages:
We have developed an industrial process data base both of companies existing in Brownsville and Matamoros, Mexico and in industries elsewhere in the U.S. Our consultant has developed analytical procedures to identify potential materials exchange linkages among these industries for both existing and new companies.

Recruiting process:
Planning tools developed for the Brownsville project identify potential firms likely to benefit from participation in regional industrial symbiosis. Tools also quantify and value materials for exchanges. Then potential firms, new or existing, are contacte d to discuss opportunities for cost savings.

Resources available?
U.S. Department of Commerce
Brownsville Economic Development Council
City of Brownsville, Port of Brownsville

Strategy to continue progressing.

1. Cost data need to be added to materials flow data base (consultant)
2. Marketing plan is to be developed for strategy to evaluate and contact IS participants (BEDC)

What is missing?

1. Additional process detail (input, output, utilities flows will increase rigor of planning tools)
2. Cost data are yet to be developed
3. A more efficient method of identifying "new" industry opportunities will speed process

Goals for the upcoming workshop.

1. Brief other projects on status of Brownsville project.
2. Demonstration of uniqueness of our approach.

EIP's key features.
The Riverside Eco-Park is an Agricultural-Industrial Park in an Urban setting. Its focus is two-fold:

• Bio-Energy - green electricity generated using bio-mass fuels
• Living System - living machines, which capture available thermal energy for commercial greenhouse production of fish, organic vegetables, and water purification.

What constitutes success?
Success will be the integration of these two existing but separate emerging technologies systems into one closed loop demonstration project which is transferable to the communities.

Measurements for a positive outcome are qualitative and quantitative

• reduced dispersion of generating station "waste" heat into the air and water
• improved environmental condition - soil and water quality, recycling volume increases
• increased self-sufficiency for the community in percent of food produced locally
• creation of sustainable jobs and training programs appropriate to our region
• increase of recreational and educational opportunities for area residents

EIP linkages.
The two emerging technology systems of bio-energy and living systems have been analyzed for compatibility through the process of a feasibility study. This study took input and outflow data from both systems, as well as current procurement practices and w aste dispersion, and matched them to achieve theoretical improvement in efficiencies for both systems, joined in closed-loop.

Our next step will be the schematic engineering and cost analyses of this system, followed by an urban farm demonstration project to test and fine-tune viability.

Recruiting process.
Our EIP has identified an unique geographic area, and established its existing natural and economic resource strengths. The McNeil Generating Station, Living Technologies, Gardener's Supply Company, and the Intervale Foundation are located on a fertile t ract of 680 acres of underutilized urban agricultural land. Additional companies will be added or recruited as the patterns, strengths, and weaknesses of the first demonstration project unfold.

Our ultimate hope is to take our two base systems of bio-energy and living systems from research and development, through commercialization, to spin-off industry creation at this site. The creative products of this process will then be fed back to our ec o-park structure for expansion, as well as to other sites, and the creation of other eco-industrial structures.

Resources available.
Sources for funding to date for our feasibility study are:

• Community development Block Grant - $9500
• Burlington Electric Department - $9800
• Department of Public Works - $5000
• In-kind contributions for
  - GIS CADD data base drawings and planning
  - Waste heat data analysis
  - Project administration

Strategy to continue progressing.
A multi-agency collaborative approach to funding and support is critical and sensible. We are working with the Department of Energy to design a process for federal agencies to cooperate on projects such as ours that cross the lines of Departments of Ener gy, Commerce, EPA, and USDA or others as examples.

What is missing?
Information and tools that would help us implement our plans might include:

• Planning and zoning strategies for low-impact industries
• Funding sources for EIP planning and implementation
• Research and development data on EIP systems already in place
• Case studies on existing EIPs
• Interagency cooperation - a central clearinghouse approach to information and resources

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
We are hoping to get a one-stop comprehensive snapshot of EIP development in the country, to evaluate and improve our own approach, and to share our best and most successful ideas with others. This should be an excellent forum, and may result in good ide as to continue the momentum of information exchange after October 18th.

EIPs Key features.
The Civano business park is part of an integrated development that emphasizes human interaction and environmental responsibility. The businesses that are being sought will enable the Civano business park to become a center of sustainable technologies and practices. Civano will become more like an EIP as it becomes more like a "virtual corporation" where businesses with certain core capabilities (e.g., makers of PVs, electric vehicles, circuit boards, steel fabricators, design firms, renewable constructi on, etc.) come to coordinate their activities, share resources, and participate in joint operations, such as water treatment, and reduce dependence on transportation and increase competitiveness.

What constitutes success?
The current aim is to attract companies that fit into the general concept of a sustainable community. At present, the chief measure of success, besides simply being a viable business district, is to succeed in attracting critical "flagship" companies tha t both set the philosophical tone for the business development thru the use and production of renewable resource technologies and also promote the idea of a business park that is center for sustainable technologies.

EIP linkages.
Prior to the purchase of the Civano land by the current developer, the City of Tucson organized two major workshops on business development at Civano. These brought together business, financial, academic, and other organizations that are interested in th e idea of a business district with distinctive characteristics. The Metropolitan Energy Commission, which originated Civano, and the City have developed new resource-efficient building codes and builder training programs for Civano which will be used to promote sustainable technologies and will likely form part of the economic incentive for certain types of businesses. The local and state economic development agencies are including Civano in their recruitment and expansion programs.

Recruiting process.
In addition to including Civano in the recruitment programs of the Greater Tucson Economic Council, a Civano Institute is being created to conduct training programs for local builders in the Civano building techniques and to promote the concept of sustain able building technologies throughout the community. Other agencies, such as a new university and the local community college have campuses in the area and both have sustainable technologies programs. Both have expressed an interest in working with Civa no.

Resources available.
Original funding for developing the Civano concept came from a $600,000 grant/loan from the State of Arizona Department of Commerce. These funds were repaid when the current developer purchased the Civano property from the State. Of course, the develope r is organizing aggressive marketing and recruitment campaigns. In addition, many thousands of hours of volunteer time have been contributed for at least 10 years to develop the concept of Civano and bring it to the current state.

Strategy to continue progressing.
Civano is an integrated residential development with an important business component. In that context, some of the key pieces include the development of a marketing plan, identifying and signing leases with "flagship" companies, and the implementation of the Civano Institute and the Civano builder program.

What is missing?
Chiefly, examples of EIPs that will show how to develop a marketing plan and infrastructure plan that will make Civano an attractive business property, without "breaking the budget." We need a better understanding of the characteristics of EIPs that prov ide competitive advantages over traditional business developments.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
Understanding and examples.

EIP's key features.

• The anchor for this EIP will be a resource recovery facility encompassing reuse, recycling, remanufacturing, and composting. (We have five companies now looking to move and expand their operations.)
• Our recruitment strategy will build from this base to include other companies including plants in the park's vicinity, whose participants and energy inputs or outputs will help build a web of by-product exchange. Other potential recruits will be in a reas of new renewable materials and energy manufacturing.
• The project will demonstrate the potential for reindustrialization based on emerging trends toward a resource efficient and renewable energy and materials economy.
• Site selection and planning will emphasize ecological values in balance with economic issues. The site will be "landscaped" to reflect native ecosystem characteristics.
• Design of the park infrastructure and buildings will emphasize energy efficiency, use of renewable energy and material, and pollution prevention.

What constitutes success?

• Traditional economic development and financial values will be met in balance with ecological values.
• Park performance objectives will reflect this balance and insure continuous improvement.
• Community support for the project will be strong because it will provide jobs for those who need them in industry that safeguards their environment.

EIP linkages.

• The by-product exchange network strategy will be implemented through a survey of potential recruits, surveys of neighboring businesses, study of county waste stream reports, and workshops with potential recruits. In addition a business incubator will be set up to support development of new businesses to fill niches in the exchange.

Recruiting process.

• A coalition of the Recycling Market Development Zone, the Alameda County Waste Management Authority and Recycling Board, and local and state economic development agencies has already been established.
• The business incubator and entrepreneurial support network will support development of successful new firms for the park.

Resources available.
Initial organization has been supported by in-kind contribution of the Economic Development Advisory Board. We are seeking Economic Development Administration and/or local foundation funds for site selection and feasibility studies. Our intention is to do the actual real estate development through private investment.

Strategy to continue progressing.

• Basically we will use standard real estate development management strategies, while tracking all of the environmental/ecological issues involved.
• FIWP funding for feasibility study.
• Evaluation and selection of sites. Environmental impact assessment.
• Move quickly enough to meet the needs of the resource recovery firms planning expansion.

What is missing?
An adaptation of standard development pro formals to reflect values like life cycle costing of alternative park and building infrastructure options that may cost more initially but yield major savings over the lifetime of the facility. And to back that u p, lenders and investors need encouragement to recognize this more systemic financial analysis.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
Better understanding of how other projects are addressing EIP development, what they're learning, how they define their projects.

9. GREEN INSTITUTE ECO-INDUSTRIAL PARK

E-mail: young@freenet.msp.mn.us

EIP's key features.
This project was not initiated by a government agency or institution of higher learning, but by a grassroots, neighborhood effort. It is unique in its attempt to develop an EIP on a small site of just 3.5 acres by integrating existing businesses into the project. The project is also unique in its commitment to incorporate environmental education into all aspects of the project.

What constitutes success?
The Green Institute is employing the EIP and green business incubator and a sector strategy to create 200 living wage jobs. We will measure success by the number of jobs created and by the ability of people from the Phillips neighborhood, the poorest and most diverse neighborhood in Minnesota, to get and keep those jobs.

EIP linkages.
We are designing a baseline study this fall with implementation to follow in early 1997. The study is being designed by Green Institute staff and a student/faculty team at the University of Minnesota. The baseline study will look at existing core and se condary businesses within the vicinity of the proposed EIP and analyze raw material uses and waste generation as well as basic economic data. The study is expected to identify opportunities for material reduction, reuse and exchange with other businesses . It will also focus the tenants' recruitment and business development efforts of the project by identifying gaps in closed potential loop business cycles.

Recruiting process.
The Green Institute is drafting criteria for tenants in the industrial park and has established a business development program targeted at "green businesses." The main strategy for integrating existing businesses into EIP is through the baseline study de scribed above and existing programs such as the Materials Exchange (MAX) program, and the Minnesota Technical Assistance Project (MATAP) . Tenant recruitment is part of the work responsibilities of a Business Development Specialist staff position. In ad dition, signage on the proposed site and earned media have generated a substantial number of inquiries from firms engaged in environmental industries.

Resources available.

• The Green Institute EIP has received funding through the Federal Enterprise Community program and the local Neighborhood Revitalization Program. The project has also been supported by foundations, including the Minneapolis Foundation and the Northwes t Area Foundation. Construction costs for the EIP are estimated at $6 million of which about $1 million has been identified from government and foundation sources.
• About $2 million will be financed as debt on the project leaving $3 million to be raised as part of a capital campaign in 1997.

Strategy to continue progressing.
A detailed work plan and time line are being developed for the staff and board in 1997. The critical next steps include: 1) contract for services with the architectural team recently selected; 2) design and implementation of the baseline study; 3) initia te and implement a capital fundraising campaign; and 4) establish a business development program and build staff capacity.

What is missing?

• Models of tenant mixes that would constitute an eco-industrial park of various sizes from a few acres to thousands of acres.
• Strategies for overcoming concerns about proprietary information and regulatory burdens when analyzing the material inputs and waste generation of private businesses.
• Market analyses of the potential for optimal tenants within a given geographic area.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
Establish contacts with other EIPs and learn about other strategies and obstacles to development. Identify capital sources and other resources that can assist in development. Answer some detailed questions with some one-on-one meetings with key EIP part icipants.

E-Mail: N/A

EIPs Key features.
The Raymond Green Industrial Park will be developed within a second growth coastal forest that will continue to be selectively harvested. The site encompasses the entire upper drainage basin of Butte Creek. Thus, the water quality within the site can be uniquely managed. The park will not be linked to traditional offsite wastewater and solid waste infrastructure systems. Waste streams will be treated and recycled on the site.

What constitutes success?
This project will be successful if the natural biodiversity and productivity of the forest can be maintained while sharing the same site with environmentally sensitive manufacturing businesses which create jobs and expand the local natural resource-based economy.

EIP linkages.
This project had focused on waste handling both for manufacturing businesses within the park and for the surrounding region. A basic premise of the project is that wastes generated will not be transported to already overloaded local wastewater and solid waste facilities.

Recruiting process.
Firms will be targeted that make new uses of local natural resources with low impact manufacturing processes.

Resources available.
To date this project has been initiated through a local partnership between the City of Raymond, the Port of Willapa Harbor, Weyerhaeuser Company, Ecotrust, a non-profit corporation dedicated to developing a sustainable economic base in the coastal forest s of the Pacific Northwest, and Shoretrust Trading Group. Planning resources and technical assistance have been provided by the State of Washington.

Strategy to continue progressing.
This green industrial park had been successfully kept on track through the efforts of an active local task force and frequent newspaper coverage. The task force is working with state and federal staff in a process created by President Clinton's timber in itiative which focuses resources on priority community economic development projects. The green industrial park is the top ranked project in Pacific County.

What is missing?
This project requires additional technical and financial assistance to plan and develop the onsite infrastructure needed to support the resources processing businesses that will be located in this green industrial park.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
Our goal for the workshop is to bring new ideas, information and resources home to help in our effort to build a viable sustainable economy in our rural Wills' community.

EIP's key features.
The key features of our EIP that differentiates it from a typical industrial park are:

• a recovery center built with energy efficient recycled content materials
• a manufacturing center
• a community center
• a sales and marketing center
• an environmental business center
• a closed loop system with minimal effluent and emissions
• highly visible park

What constitutes success?
Success for our EIP project will be indicated by:

• Land acquisition and infrastructure development
• The creation of safe, healthy, family wage jobs
• Minimal environmental impact
• Community support
• The self-sustenance of the venture
• The provision of recyclables to vital outlets
• The provision of revenues to replace money originally extracted from the now non-operational resource recovery facility

EIP linkages.
Development Steps:

• Feasibility study completed Fall of 1995
  - Identified three potential sites
  - Potential tenants
  - Local expansion and out of state relocation
  - Outlined components of EIP (see Executive Summary)
  - Economic Feasibility
• Recruitment of anchor tenants (in process)
• Recruitment of capital and development partners (in process)
• Working with state legislators to create incentives for green industries

Recruiting process.
We have done a feasibility study identifying local businesses interested in expansion or relocation to an industrial park. Currently, we are working with existing companies to acquire capital for expansion and equipment purchases. Throughout the history of the organization we have worked closely with the Washington State Department of Community Trade and Economic Development. Attempting to recruit new companies and gather information, we have attended many trade shows and conferences.

Resources available.

• The Environmental Industries Park has pulled funding from a number of sources.
• The Skagit County Government and the Economic Development Administration funded a feasibility study. Currently, we are seeking to fund land acquisition and infrastructure development. We have also received funding from the Forest Service for communi ty revitalization. This contract will fund anchor tenant recruitment efforts.

Strategy to continue progressing.
In order for the Environmental Industries Park to progress, development partners will need to make a serious commitment of their capital and time. Until this is accomplished, progress will be slow.

What is missing?
Expertise in industrial development would help implement our EIP plans. Financing is crucial for our EIP's survival. An executive loan program would be welcomed. An industrial specialist from the public or private sector lent to our program for two yea rs would make a world of difference.

Goals for the upcoming workshop.
I hope to learn from the struggles of other EIP developers and get more contacts within the EIP community. While there, I hope to make contacts for receiving funding and development assistance. I want to provide insight and lessons learned to policy mak ers so they can generate federal assistance.

Phone: (609) 777-0319
Fax: (609) 292-7340
E-mail: MPOLSKY@DEP.STATE.NJ.US

EIP's key features.

• Trenton's EIP will not necessarily be a physical place, but may be a network of businesses; firms won't need to be located next door to each other to participate; there will be a management structure to assist businesses with these linkages, matchmaki ng, and other technical assistance.
• Another key feature is the diversity of our Eco-Industrial Round table and the process it has undertaken to develop an EIP. The Round table is a multi-stakeholder steering committee comprised of representatives from government, business, non-profit a nd educational institutions.

What constitutes success?

• Success will be creating new jobs for our residents, increasing tax ratabilities, utilizing our Brownfields sites, creating value-added products that generate additional money in our local economy.
• Success will be more easily measured in terms of economic development, but at the same time we will improve the environment through less waste, less pollution and cleaner industries being recruited. We also hope to position Trenton as a "green" city.
• Success may initially be determined by expressions of interest from developers and attention by the media for this unique form of industrial development.

EIP linkages.

• Bruce Herrick, Ph.D., a Round table member, prepared a working paper that outlines the Round table's progress to date and its plan of action. The report also lists the potential linkages that the Round table had brain stormed.
• We hired Cornell University Work and Environment Initiative to conduct feasibility study and baseline assessment. We will survey the businesses that already exist in the region and their processes, inputs and outputs. We will then determine what oth er businesses can build off of those.

Recruiting process.

• We have produced one brochure on the project and recently sent out our first news release (our last Round table meeting was covered by a TV local Station and newspaper). We will continue a public relations campaign to attract business and developer's attention to the project.

Resources available.

• City of Trenton and NJ DEP - Contributing in-kind staff time to coordinate Round table activities. Also covers postage, photocopying and printing.
• DEP contributed $2,400 for preliminary Report.
• New Jersey Urban Enterprise Zone Assistance Fund - $25,000 Grant
• United States Economic Development Administration - $25,000 Technical Assistance Grant.
• Application to United States Environmental Protection Agency - $100,000 Sustainable Development Challenge Grant.

Strategy to continue progressing.

• Round table has outlined a time line in its first work paper.
• Must complete baseline study.
