Green Garage: Start Your P2 Engines

Improve your auto shop's environmental performance and worker safety while saving money.

Virginia DEQ's Office of Pollution Prevention is piloting a program that will offer no-cost pollution prevention (P2) technical assistance for auto shops in Northern Virginia.

Are you looking to save money on your operations? Do you want to enhance health and safety for workers in your auto shop? You can do all this and be an environmental leader in your industry.

Auto repairs are critical for maintaining vehicle performance and safety, but they can have environmental impacts from waste disposal, chemical usage, energy consumption, and emissions. Virginia's Green Garage Program can help your auto shop comply with or even reduce your regulatory obligations by using less-hazardous products. Through this free, voluntary, non-regulatory program, your auto shop can create a greener and cleaner workplace.
