The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) manages the Indiana Governor’s Awards for Environmental Excellence – now in its 24th year – to recognize exemplary environmental practices. The award is open to all Indiana facilities, state and local units of government, individuals, and technical assistance organizations that implement outstanding environmental projects with measurable results. Nominations and applications submitted to IDEM are reviewed by a selection committee comprised of representatives from industries, environmental organizations, educational organizations, and government officials.
