ITRC takes pride in the value of its activities, documents, and training courses in advancing the appropriate application and regulation of innovative environmental technologies. In a field where many technical issues and stakeholders are frequently involved, it is difficult to document the part ITRC played in building acceptance of a better solution or to quantify improvements in protectiveness and efficiency. However, we do collect evidence of the steady, incremental benefits of ITRC’s many members, teams, documents, and training courses.
The following examples show how states take ownership of ITRC products by participating in the development, reviewing and accepting, and using the final ITRC documents and training courses. The high number of states taking ownership of ITRC products indicates that ITRC effectively educates states about innovative environmental technologies across the nation. The categories in the examples represent:
- Attendance at Training – The number of states that have participated in ITRC training course for the particular project area.
- State Environmental Priority- The number of states that reported the environmental issue as a priority in its state.
- Survey Input – The number of states that provide input during the developmental stages of the ITRC guidance document(s) or training courses(s).
- Training Dry Run Participation – The number of states that participated and provided feedback to the training course(s) before it was finalized for public delivery.
- Use and/or Success Reported – The number of states that reported the use or success of the ITRC guidance document(s) in its state.
