Green Tier

Building on the successes of the Environmental Cooperation Pilot Program, Green Tier creates co-benefits for businesses aspiring to differentiate themselves by systematically delivering superior environmental performance. Currently the DNR has entered into 5 charters, 2 Tier 2 contracts, and 19 Tier 1 agreements.

How Green Tier works

Green Tier is based on a collaborative system of contracts and charters crafted jointly by participating businesses and the DNR. These contracts and charters streamline environmental requirements in many cases and encourage new environmental technologies. Major elements of the program were developed in advisory committee meetings between 2000 and 2003. Green Tier is designed to help environmentally responsible companies achieve environmental [PDF 33KB] and economic [PDF 32KB] gains.
