Eco-Logical Business Program

Automotive Services Program

Eco-Logical Business Program recognizes businesses that reach the highest standards in minimizing their environmental impact. The goal of the program is to prevent and minimize pollution generated by small businesses in the Tri-County area. This is the first multi-media (air, water, solid waste) certification program in the nation.

The Automotive Services Program is one part of the Eco-Logical Business Program. It recognizes vehicle service and repair businesses and shops that reach the highest standards in minimizing their environmental impact.

BECOME CERTIFIED

If your auto shop meets local environmental requirements and takes extra, voluntary steps to help protect the environment, we'll certify it as an Eco-Logical Business . The program is sponsored by NATA and the Pollution Prevention Outreach Team, a group of pollution prevention experts from eight Portland-area agencies. For technical information, shops are encouraged to use " Keep Your Shop In Tune," a handbook that outlines the Best Management Practices to control and prevent pollution for automotive shops and related industries. The guidebook has many steps and tips your shop can take to reduce water and air pollution, and hazardous and solid waste.

In addition, several Oregon automotive shop owners have worked with DEQ and a consultant to develop strategies for creating a sustainable automotive repair shop. The information generated by this project is found in " A Sustainability Vision For The Automotive Services Industry." The purpose of this document is to help shops move even further beyond the Eco-Logical Business program criteria.

When you request an applicationyou will receive a guidebook, "Keep Your Shop In Tune". Also included is a self-test Check list of program eligibility criteria. This is the same list we used for certification visits.

Once your shop meets environmental requirements and takes voluntary steps to help protect the environment, we'll let your customers, and the community, know about it. To help you learn what needs to be done to become a certified Eco-Logicial Business, call (503) 823-5320 or email Eco Biz.
