ISO 14001 and Federal Facilities (Part 2)
In: Federal facilities environmental journal, Band 12, Heft 2, S. 113-116
ISSN: 1520-6513
AbstractFederal facilities would be expected to have a substantial head start on conformance to ISO 14001. Federal
and agency requirements have typically required a procedural, standardized approach to management, and this is
the heart and soul of the ISO system. This article will discuss the standard, element by element, to suggest
where federal facilities can take advantage of efforts already expended to meet existing requirements. The
elements must be regarded as nodes of a network, however. Facilities considering an environmental management
system, whether ISO 14001 or another alternative, must create an overlying documentation that directs the user
to the location of these nodes and how they relate to each other. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This developmental lens, analyzing how historical turns have shaped the modern institution, allows for a richer, more nuanced understanding. The Development of the American Presidency pays great attention to that historical weight but is organized by the topics and concepts relevant to political science, with the constitutional origins and political development of the presidency its central focus. Through comprehensive and in-depth coverage, Richard Ellis looks at how the presidency has evolved in relation to the public, to Congress, to the executive branch, and to the law, showing at every step how different aspects of the presidency have followed distinct trajectories of change. Each chapter promotes active learning, beginning with a narrative account of some illustrative puzzle that brings to life a central concept. A wealth of photos, figures, and tables allow for the visual presentations of concepts"--
