The members of the Interstate Technology & Regulatory Council (ITRC) Ethylene Oxide Emissions Team (EtO) wish to acknowledge and thank the individuals, organizations, and agencies that contributed to this online guidance.
The EtO Team was led by April Lazzaro, Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy and Keisha Long, South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. They were assisted by Program Advisors Kristen Parry and Paige Hobaugh of Tetra Tech, Inc. In addition, Heather Stettler, PhD, RPA, of Elemental Text, LLC, provided technical editing and writing services, and Bruce Elliot of Above Bits, LLC, provided website development. Evan Madden, (formerly of ITRC); Marguerite Bennett, ITRC Project Associate; Devin Seckar, ITRC Project Manager; and Nicole Henderson, H&M Environmental provided organizational support. Finally, Patricia Reyes (retired, former ITRC Director) and Charles Reyes (current ITRC Director) were excellent liaisons throughout the development of the guide.
During the development and updating phases, the web guide underwent multiple reviews from which the team received many expert comments across various federal, state, and private industry fields, as well as stakeholder members.
