As a charter member of the Environmental
Protection Agency's Performance Track program,
Lafarge Aggregates Southeast's Douglasville
Quarry is in a very elite group who have made a
commitment to going beyond environmental
compliance and what is legally required of them.
A keystone of the program is an environmental
management system (EMS) that helps set the
course for achieving continual environmental
improvements.
Goals are established and monitored. Some of the
"beyond compliance" goals that have been reached
include reductions in: greenhouse gases by using
alternate fuels, dust from our operations by
installing stockpile sprays and relocating a crusher,
electrical usage by implementing an energy
management system, and waste by handling a
by-product in an innovative manner to make a
usage product. Environmental improvement
projects that are currently underway include wildlife
habitat improvement, wetland enhancement and
preservation, and water quality improvements.
By striving for continual improvement in the way we
do business, Lafarge Aggregates Southeast is
doing our part in being "the undisputed world
leader in building materials."
