<p>Implementing ISO 14001 &#8211;  Key Elements</p>
<p>Environmental Aspects</p>
<p>A procedure is required to identify the environmental aspects of the  organizationÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s activities, products and services within the scope of the  EMS that it can control and those it can influence. Aspects include  technical concerns such as potential process, storage, transfer,  transportation, utilities, and product impacts. Aspects are reviewed at  the level of the site, plant, department, installation and process.  Planned or new developments, or new or modified activities, products and  services must also be considered. From the identification process,  aspects should be determined which have or have the potential to cause  significant impact on the environment. Impacts include emissions to air,  water, hazardous waste, soil and groundwater, energy use, material use,  cosmetic and nuisance concerns. The significant impacts must be taken  into account when implementing the EMS and this information must be kept  up to date.</p>
<p>Aspect / impact identification and the determination of significance  is the cornerstone of the EMS, as significant impacts must be managed.  All aspects and the associated impacts must be identified in order to  determine if they are significant. The organization should then  determine the significance of each impact based on a declared procedure  (criteria). There is no single recommended or accepted method for  identifying and evaluating the significance of aspects and impacts. It  is upto the organization which method to use but the method must be  sound &amp; justifiable. The criteria can include elements influencing  impacts such as quantity &amp; toxicity of substances, sensitivity of  receptors, considering legal requirements can also be a useful filter to  evaluate significance of a particular impact.</p>
<p>Questions to ponder could be: <span id="more-67"></span></p>
<p>Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Are all aspects identified: past, current &amp; future planned,  direct &amp; indirect, for activities, products and services under  normal, abnormal and emergency situations?<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Have aspects with a significant impact been identified Ã¢â‚¬â€œ is there a  significance criteria?<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Are significant aspects &amp; their potential impacts been considered  while developing objectives &amp; targets?</p>
<p>Legal requirements:</p>
<p>A methodology for gathering information on legislation is essential.  Legislation can cover discharges to air, land and water and nuisance  considerations as well as other factors related to the operation e.g.  packaging, emergencies; waste management etc. legislation covering  indirect aspects and impacts can be important for the organization and  should be considered.  There should be effective communication of  legislation requirements to those who need to know. There must be a  periodic review and this should be frequent enough so as to capture  changes.</p>
<p>Questions to be answered could be:</p>
<p>Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Is there a process for identifying and keeping all relevant  information up to date?<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Have all regulations and other requirements that apply been identified  viz. environmental laws, industry codes for practice, agreements with  public authorities.</p>
<p>Objectives, targets and programme</p>
<p>Objectives and targets must be documented and consistent with policy  and the identified significant environmental aspects and legal  requirements. Employees responsible for achieving objectives &amp;  targets should be involved in their development so as to ensure  understanding and reality. An organizationÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s objectives &amp; targets  must be S.M.A.R.T (Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time  bound) and reviewed and revised where necessary. Programmes must include  the designation of responsibility, the means of achievement and the  timeframes by which they are to be achieved.</p>
<p>Questions to be deliberate could be:</p>
<p>Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Are objectives and targets documented and measurable, maintained  throughout the organization, consistent with policy and continual  improvement?<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Has consideration been given to normalizing them (e.g. energy use per  tonne of production)<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Have legal requirements, significant aspects, technical options, views  of interested parties being considered?<br />
Ã¢â‚¬Â¢	Have programmes been established to manage the achievement of  objectives and targets, and do they include Ã¢â‚¬â€œ responsibility at each  relevant level, solutions and time scales, considered new developments?</p>
