"The system demonstrates a real commitment to environmental improvement and control,
also a remarkably mature level for a relatively new system. All involved are to be congratulated
on a superb effort.
"The documented system is very comprehensive addressing all elements of the Standard. The level
of sophistication, allowing for the relatively new nature of the system is surprisingly good,
with substantial records of utilities usage on all sites and well defined targets and objectives
and easily followed management trails. The system and its application demonstrate a full compliance with both legislative requirements and the Standard.
"The internal audits carried out are very thorough and address all elements of the system. An excellent non-conformance control system is in place and has been followed through to close out in all cases."
