Green Tier is a program that gives environmentally innovative companies who go beyond compliance with minimum regulatory standards support for their efforts to engage in superior environmental performance while improving their bottom line.

The program adapts to the needs of the company, community and environment by using collaborative contracts, charters and environmental management systems. The goals of the program include environmental improvement beyond that which is achieved through mere compliance, community development and economic gain.

Green Tier program becomes permanent with signing of Act 30
