Pollution Prevention Online Version
This interactive, online version of the Pollution Prevention Guide (PPG) is designed to help businesses access and reduce their impact on the environment. It allows you to fill in the self audit checklists and produce your own Action List. This is part of the pollution prevention programme, which includes a hardcopy version of the guide, action sheets, posters, stencils and visits from an ECan Pollution Prevention Officer.

If you are a business within the Canterbury Region, you are also eligible for ratepayer-funded visits and assistance by an ECan Pollution Prevention Officer (see the Assistance for Business pages for information).
If you are new to the pollution prevention programme, we suggest you read the introduction section, and the explanation sections for each module in the PDFs. Useful Information
Businesses from outside the Canterbury Region may find this guide useful, but should be aware that rules and plans differ between regions; so you should contact your Regional Council, or City or District Council to check your local requirements.

How to use this guide
These checklists have been adapted from the hardcopy PPG, so you can put your answers directly into the checklists. Once complete, click a button at the end of the checklists, this will generate an Action List based on your responses. The Action List can be generated as a PDF or Excel document so you can edit it to suit your company, save it, and modify as required. If you have registered, you will be able to save partially completed checklists and edit completed ones.
The PDF link for each module will give you a complete version of that module, which is the same as the hardcopy; and the links beside each module allow you to open supporting documents such as the waste audits or spill procedures.
