“Wastewater from our facilities is managed and treated to meet regulatory standards and minimize environmental impacts prior to discharge. On-site wastewater treatment facilities are operated at many of our production and research facilities. Where on-site treatment is not provided, wastewater is discharged to local municipal wastewater treatment facilities that have the technology and capacity to treat our wastewater. As a company, we currently do not differentiate discharges to freshwater and seawater in our enterprise system. The majority of our facilities discharge to freshwater environments.
As described in GRI 303-2, many of our production facilities are equipped with advanced wastewater treatment technologies to ensure that our facilities meet both regulatory requirements and the internal standards required by our EQC Program.”
