Community Advisory Panel (Chemtrade Logistics, ERCO Worldwide, GFL Environmental, and Univar Solutions)

The Community Advisory Panel (CAP) provides a forum for the open and mutual exchange of ideas and concerns between the companies and local communities in Maplewood and surrounding areas.

It serves as a focus group and resource for the companies and community members on issues of mutual concern including safety, health, and the environment.

Members

The CAP has a diversity of membership including North Shore Emergency Management, the Port, DNV, Wild Bird Trust and various community associations as well as individual community members.

CAP is open to any member of the community who wishes to participate in achieving CAP goals while respecting the Guiding Principles and Terms of Reference.

Scope

The CAP works to develop an understanding of the companies’ activities as they affect the neighboring communities for the education of all concerned citizens.

The CAP does not usurp regulatory functions, local government controls, or other government procedures in place for public safety, health and environmental protection, or replace ongoing involvement between the companies and the surrounding community.
