HOUSTON, Feb. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- An environmental compliance
tracking system called eFACTS, designed by Compaq Computer Corporation
(NYSE: CPQ) for the State of Pennsylvania, has received CIO Magazine's 2002
Enterprise Value Award.
eFACTS, which stands for Environment, Facility, Application, Compliance
Tracking System, is an online database that enables the tracking of
information about environmentally regulated programs, properties, businesses,
clients and facilities. Designed at the direction of then-Governor Tom Ridge,
eFACTS was developed in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Protection (DEP) to help protect the Commonwealth's air, land
and water from pollution, and provide for the health and safety of its
citizens through a clean and safe environment.
Since its inception six years ago, eFACTS has helped to manage more than
150,000 environmental permits. Much of the eFACTS information is available
online so citizens can track the environmental permits and learn about
pollution at the local level.
