Environmental Technology Council

The Environmental Technology Council (ETC) is the leading trade association of commercial firms that provide a broad range of recycling, treatment, disposal, and field services to customers for industrial and hazardous wastes. ETC member companies provide the infrastructure for waste management in the U.S. to support productive industries, commercial businesses, agriculture, and government entities. Founded in 1982, the Council has been a leader in promoting strong environmental standards based on sound science to assure the proper management of hazardous waste. ETC has fought for its goals through legislative advocacy and the public administrative process, particularly at the Environmental Protection Agency, and in the courts.
