Port Sustainability Audit

项目名称：	Port Sustainability Audit
摘要：	As public entities are held to higher standards of "green initiatives" that continue to promulgate within private industry, it is critical that significant advances be made in the way the public entities manage sustainability. With regard to public river ports there has not been a mainstream attempt to move green initiatives forward. This project will begin a study to establish a framework that will allow public river ports to institute a "green" policy. If implemented by a port facility, the sustainability audit that is established as a part of this study will set the framework to allow the river ports to implement this initiative into the future and monitor/audit their own activities. The purpose of this project is to establish a sustainability auditing mechanism for public river ports along the inland waterway system. Future phases of the project will build upon these initial findings and allow for the development of a prioritization system for sustainability initiatives within the organizations that integrates their sustainability approach with the triple bottom line of economic, environmental and social benefits. When fully implemented, this project will allow the opportunity for the development of an individual sustainability plan for each of the public river ports that fit into the mission and strategy of each organization, allowing them to capitalize on any investments that they might make.
