One of the key policy platforms in Stockton's Community plan is to Secure a safe and attractive environment for current and future generations.
Stockton Council recognises that our daily operations have significant impacts on local and global environment. For that reason, we are committed to improve our long-term environmental performance and to reduce environmental impacts to levels that are economically viable, technologically achievable and practical.
We would like to become a role model to demonstrate to businesses and the community, the benefits of improving environmental practices. We will comply with, and where practical exceed, all the relevant environmental regulations and legislations.
With this in mind, we have developed an Environmental Policy which focuses on establishing targets to improve environmental performance within the organisation.
