Abstract:
Information
will
be
collected
for
the
evaluation
of
the
PrintSTEP
pilot
program
in
New
Hampshire
and
St.
Louis,
Missouri.
PrintSTEP
stands
for
"
Printers
Simplified
Total
Environmental
Partnership"
and
is
the
first
simplified
program
for
managing
the
various
environmental
regulatory
requirements
of
printers.
PrintSTEP's
two­
year
pilot
has
four
features:
Operational
flexibility,
incentives
for
and
assistance
with
pollution
prevention
activities,
regulatory
simplification,
and
public
participation.
The
evaluation
will
systematically
identify
the
impacts
the
program
has
had
on
three
types
of
stakeholders:
printers,
community
residents,
and
the
state
government
agencies
administering
the
program.
Specifically,
the
evaluation
will
determine
the
extent
to
which
the
7
goals
of
the
pilot
program
are
met.
The
goals
are:
enhanced
environmental
protection;
increased
use
of
pollution
prevention
practices;
simplified
regulatory
process
for
printers;
improved
efficiency
of
administration
for
state
governments;
enhanced
public
involvement;
participants'
realize
benefits
and
are
motivated
to
participate
in
PrintSTEP;
and,
cost
effectiveness
for
all
stakeholders.
The
evaluation
encompasses
a
baseline
survey,
mid­
point
review,
and
end­
of­
pilot
survey.
The
baseline
survey
and
mid­
point
review
will
have
been
completed
by
the
time
the
current
ICR
expires.
So,
the
proposed
ICR
is
necessary
for
the
end­
of­
pilot
survey
of
the
56
printers
voluntarily
participating
in
the
pilot.
The
lessons
learned
from
the
pilot
will
be
shared
with
states
interested
in
establishing
PrintSTEP­
like
programs
and
may
be
translated
into
a
guide
for
developing,
implementing
and
evaluating
pilot
programs.
