The plan includes an implementation plan of cleaner production audit and certification of industries. (This result may NOT be directly attributed to the Project as this initiative was lunched before the project started and was encouraged by the central Comments: and local governments. Instead of accreditation by 3rd parties, ‘clean production’ will be more a process audited internally and recognized by the local government (FNIZ Management Committee).
