In Newfoundland and Labrador, growth in the environmental sector is influenced by our resource-based economy and unique marine environment. Our environmental sector includes: environmental consultants, waste management specialists, engineering and information technology firms, manufacturing, as well as research and development companies.

Sectoral development activities include:
   continued cooperative arrangements with other Atlantic provinces to
     promote and develop environmental industries;
  support for export development of environmental goods and services
     from this region;
  support for local business to attend trade shows;
  working with the Newfoundland and Labrador Environmental Industry
     Association, including sponsorship of the annual general meeting; and
  support for information sessions on environmental technologies and
     business opportunities identification throughout the year.
