Research output: Working paperDiscussion paper

Abstract

This Phase-Down Strategy is a project of the GLRC and seeks to complement and enhance the recommendations in the Quicksilver Caucus’s Action Plan and Implementation Strategy for reducing mercury in the environment. The goal of the strategy is to reduce the use of mercurycontaining products and to minimize mercury releases caused by remaining uses of mercury-containing products in the Great Lakes region by 2015. States are encouraged to take the recommended actions as early as is practical, with implementation of mercury bans no later than 2015.
