| Executive Director's Update |
The Arkansas Environmental Federation is dedicated to promoting environmental protection within Arkansas’ manufacturing and business sectors. If you or your facility has environmental responsibilities, the AEF could be your primary source for environmental, safety and health training, professional development, regulatory review, legislative monitoring and professional networking. Our cost-effective workshops on the pressing environmental issues facing Arkansas’ manufacturers are convenient and timely and always bring together the regulators and the regulated community in a non-confrontational manner.
The AEF is committed to a balanced, effective and efficient approach to environmental protection. We understand that job creation often comes with an environmental impact. Corporate resources are not unlimited. Investments and efforts aimed at the environment must, therefore, be designed to accomplish environmental gains in an efficient manner, including Arkansas specific training for environmental professionals. AEF Members can take advantage of two members only features of our newly updated website (members see the login page for instructions on new passwords): We welcome you to the Arkansas Environmental Federation’s website and encourage you to consider partnering with us to make a positive impact on Arkansas.
