Pittsburgh
Brewing Company: DEP staff originally visited Pittsburgh
Brewing Company on October 2001 to review its pollution prevention
measures in an effort to lower the brewery's water use and
sewer bill. Pittsburgh Brewing acted on the site visit recommendations
by applying for and receiving a site assessment grant so as
to further evaluate the plant's needs. The combined recommendations
from DEP and consultant saved 15 million gallons of water
a year and $150,000 a year. The brewery is not done. They
are currently upgrading other systems and considering implementing
more suggestions.
