Dear Friends, 

I want to thank our loyal clients and customers who we have continued to assist through these difficult economic times.  I look forward to improved conditions when their investments pay off with a competitive advantage.  The slower-than-usual period has been used to carefully examine our service mix, how we market services,  and how we deliver them to our clients.  Environ-Lean^® and our GHG climate change programs discussed in this  issue are examples of additions and changes we have made. We are keenly aware of and focused on how our management system consulting, training, and auditing services integrate with emerging GHG and climate change national and international regulatory initiatives.

The good news is that despite the economy all of our associates are still with us and I was able to find the time to guide several sea kayak trips on Lakes Superior and Michigan this summer.  The trips are actually a lot of physical work for not much pay but it’s sort of like getting a paid vacation, which is something most small business owners don’t often experience.

 I hope you find the articles in this issue valuable and apologize for the rather large size (300 kb) of the file that gets delivered to your inbox.  We hope to make it smaller soon. As always please, provide your feedback on our blog www.envcompsys.com/blog or email us at kalehner@envcompsys.com
