Peterson Power Systems Service Departments Awarded Model Shop Status by State of California
Peterson Power Systems Inc., the authorized Caterpillar Power Systems dealership for northern California as well as central and southern Oregon,
has received “Model Shop” status from the California EPA’s Department of Toxic Substances Control as part of the agency’s Pollution Prevention (P2) Model Shop Program.
The P2 Model Shop Program recognizes automotive and equipment repair facilities for excellence in pollution prevention. The program offers technical training and requires that model shops complete a rigorous checklist of environmental practices in addition to full compliance with state environmental mandates.
This recognition for Peterson Power’s San Leandro service departments follows the dealership’s recent Winner of the Year award from the California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) as part of CIWMB’s Waste Reduction Awards Program for exemplary waste reduction and resource efficiency.
“Peterson Power is very proud to be selected as a Model Shop by the OPPTD,” says Peterson Power President Eric Martin. “The accolade recognizes not only our recent efforts to embrace green business practices but also reflects the core values of our Peterson employees and customers. These are people who care deeply about their communities and their environment and who are willing to go the extra distance to ensure that toxic hazards are reduced to an absolute minimum.”
