MACT Scenario Planning Workshop Participants Explore Opportunities for Performance Improvement

On November 9th and 10th, a group of utility and industrial plant managers, engineers and environmental supervisors gathered at Neundorfer's headquarters in Willoughby, Ohio, for a 1 1/2-day brainstorming event to explore possibilities for compliance with proposed MACT regulations. The event was structured around scenario planning, a process that's used to address long-term uncertainty by creating several alternative "stories" about what might happen in the future and the most appropriate responses in each case.
Scenario planning stories about possible futures are built around a specific decision or topic that needs to be addressed. In this case, the focal issue was, "What proactive actions can we take now to get ready for MACT?" Led by facilitators from Neundorfer, Storm Technologies, UDC and Paragon Airheater Technologies, participants developed four scenarios and uncovered actions to take that will be beneficial no matter what happens with regulations.
