When weighing whether to make a process change or a capital investment to improve your facility's environmental performance, be sure to consider the hidden costs and benefits. For instance, when considering opportunities to reduce waste generation, look beyond what you'll save on waste treatment and disposal fees and consider the additional costs of wasted raw materials, off-spec products, labor costs, regulatory expenses, permit fees, and potential fines for violations.
