The aim of this new booklet is to promote the best practices developed by EpE member companies by disseminating them widely among industrial players so that potential tensions may be alleviated without
undermining the growth or competitiveness of individual players. On the contrary, most of these measures are profitable, reduce operational risks and improve relations with neighbouring communities with whom businesses often share the same water resources. The task of translating these practices into better water management is global as much as local. We hope that our readers will embrace this challenge with the same determination as EpE members.
