E2P2 Pollution Prevention Award Winner- Convenience Auto Service


The Environmental Excellence Partnership Program (E2P2) recognizes leaders in environmental protection. Annual awards are given for notable efforts in water quality protection, waste reduction and recycling, and pollution prevention.  Award winners have gone above and beyond to do what is best for the environment

Convenience Auto Service is a full service auto repair shop that has been in business for 13 years.  They take pride in their work and their skilled certified technicians.  

Convenience Auto Service was awarded the Pollution Prevention Award due to: 

  • The organization is in full compliance with the Pollution Prevention regulation at this time. 
  • They have a strong interest in pollution prevention and a willingness to learn more about further improving environmental management issues- such as rain gardens. 
  • They choose to use less hazardous products.  For example, in their Cintas Parts Washer, they now use a citrus-based solution instead of a mineral spirits blend- which is flammable and poses inhalation hazards. 
  • The shop was converted to LED lighting versus fluorescent bulbs which contain mercury. 
Show your commitment to the environment and your community by becoming an E2P2 partner. Participation in the program is free. Participants receive free technical assistance, complimentary audits, community recognition, and more. Learn more by visiting Washtenaw.org/e2p2.
