The goal of the Consortium is to establish a collaborative effort with staff from each of the states working together as if they were part of the same organization. Each participating state identifies a lead person who:

  • coordinates the state's activities with regard to ECC's objectives
  • makes decisions about how the Consortium should function
  • identifies and secures other state staff and resources to work on Consortium activities
  • meets with team leaders from other states.

State staff have great opportunities to learn and grow through their participation in the Consortium and can become resource people for their colleagues. The lead staff are also expected to be a catalyst for implementing changes in their own organizations. State lead contacts meet three to four times a year.

State agency leaders from the participating states provide guidance to the Consortium and participate in selected Consortium activities. Consortium updates are provided in conjunction with Environmental Council of the States (ECOS) meetings. In addition, the Consortium convenes periodic Thinkers' Workshops bringing together experts from inside and outside government to discuss environmental compliance -- and, where appropriate, beyond compliance activities -- and enforcement management.
