The paper builds on the insights gained from the Benchmarking Symposium held May 19, 2010, in Seattle, Wash., and on stakeholder comments. It examines a number of industrial sectors in detail including: aluminum, cement, chemicals, food processing, glass, heat, pulp and paper, and steel. The Washington State Department of Ecology and SEI worked with representatives from each of those sectors as they drafted the white paper during the spring of 2010.

The paper was written in collaboration with the Washington State Department of Ecology; the Öko-Institut in Berlin, Germany; and Ross & Associates Environmental Consulting Ltd.
