Pacific Northwest Pollution Prevention Research Center  The Pacific Northwest Pollution Prevention Research Center (PPRC) is a nonprofit organization that was created on the recommendation of the Pacific Northwest Hazardous Waste Advisory Council, a group of representatives from industry, public interest groups, academia and other Northwest stakeholders appointed by the governors of the Northwest states to discuss hazardous waste management in the region. The Council realized that by preventing pollution &emdash; eliminating or minimizing the release of waste into the air, land and water before it occurs &emdash; there is less to recycle, treat or dispose of in a landfill, and that preventing pollution at the source through process changes, materials substitution or other methods must be a top priority in order to break the cycle of shifting releases from one environmental medium to another.
