Interactions among policy and scientific communities vary according to the phases of the projects. To date, these interactions are not coordinated in a systematic way but rather function on an ad hoc basis (based on links among individuals , rather than institutional , structured links). On the other hand, the various policy departments have different formal and informal contact points in the Member States, coming from numerous research and policy communities with discrete interests. These communities are often also competing internally (e.g. competition between the water quality/quantity...

Ronald E. Hester is Professor of Chemistry in the University of York. He was for short periods a research fellow in Cambridge and an assistant professor at Cornell before being appointed to a lectureship in chemistry in York in 1965. He has been a full professor in York since 1983. His more than 300 publications are mainly in the area of vibrational spectroscopy, latterly focusing on time-resolved studies of photoreaction intermediates and on biomolecular systems in solution. He is active in environmental chemistry and is a founder member and former chairman of the Environment Group of the Royal Society of Chemistry and editor of Industry and the Environment in Perspective (RSC, 1983) and Understanding Our Environment (RSC, 1986). As a member of the Council of the UK Science and Engineering Research Council and several of its sub-committees, panels and boards, he has been heavily involved in national science policy and administration. He was, from 1991-93, a member of the UK Department of the Environment Advisory Committee on Hazardous Substances and is currently a member of the Publications and Information Board of the Royal Society of Chemistry. 

Department policy, which applies solely to one department, such as the particular rules a department manager may impose to allocate work, review output, monitor progress, etc. 

There are two types of resource requirements those needed to run the business and those needed to execute particular contracts or sales. The standard is not specific, but a glance at ISO 9004-1 will reveal that it is more than those needed for a particular contract and less than needed to run the business. ISO 9004-1 limits the resources to those needed to implement the quality policy and meet quality objectives. It will be very difficult for companies to distinguish between those resources which serve quality and those which serve other objectives. There may be some departments that can be eliminated, such as the legal, insurance, catering, medical, or publicity departments, but in a company-wide quality culture all departments etc. will be included. 

The way many companies identify resource requirements is to solicit resource budgets from each department covering a 1 to 5 year period. However, before the managers can prepare budgets they need to know what requirements they will have to meet. They will need access to the corporate plans, sales forecasts, new product development plans, marketing plans, production plans, etc. as well as the quality policies, objectives, and procedures.

In many organizations, the existing PSM and ESH systems may be partially or almost completely informal. It is essential that this informality is eliminated in the integrated system. An informal system exists when there are few written policies, procedures or standards, or written requirements are not enforced or followed. Informal systems almost invariably contain internal inconsistencies which can lead to breakdowns in PSM and ESH management. Different departments and locations will have different systems. Part of the team s work will be to formalize these informal PSM and ESH management during the integration process. 

The prospect of a patchwork of state standards became a cause of great concern to manufacturers. When President Jimmy Carter was elected, he proposed that mandatoi y standards be set by the Department of Energy (DOE) to replace the voluntary efficiency targets. Wliile opposing mandatory standards at the federal level, manufacturers acquiesced to the National Energy Conservation and Policy Act (NECPA) of 1978, which required DOE to set appliance efficiency standards for residential products. In return, manufacturers were able to obtain a requirement for DOE to evaluate the impacts on manufacturers that standards would impose and to consider them in setting the standards.

Because eveiy means of transportation requires energy for propulsion, how energy is used in transportation is something that is carefully tracked by the Office of Transportation Policy Development within the Department of Transportation (DOT). The transportation sector felt the greatest impact from the oil supply disruptions in the 1970s because it was, and continues to be, the sector most dependent on oil. It is also the sector with the least flexibility to switch fuels, (see also Consumption)...

Before committing the company or department to a system of planned maintenance, it is essential that there is a complete overview of the total demand on plant, equipment and resources and the benefits from the implementation of such a system, manual or computerized. Varying systems and/or part systems exist in almost every engineering maintenance department, which are due to company policy, changes in departmental staff or workforce, commitment of persons responsible, or, as is the situation in a number of instances, a previous breakdown, which the...
