Performance Track is a voluntary partnership that recognizes top environmental performance among participating U.S. facilities of all types, sizes, and complexity, public and private. Program partners are providing leadership in many areas, including preventing pollution at its source. The benefits of becoming a Performance Track member include awards and other forms of public recognition, networking opportunities, and news visibility.

The goal of Performance Track is to recognize and encourage top environmental performance among private and public facilities, which go beyond compliance with regulatory requirements to achieve environmental excellence.
