8. 8  Project Life SENOMI (Region of Lombardy and European Commission) Spread the application of EMAS regulation in Northern Milan area Carry out an operative environmental program of the industrial area  Management Committee SENOMI Created in November 2005 Took part it: Sesto San Giovanni Municipality, the Province of Milan, Milano Metropoli Development Agency, North Milan Businessman’s Association and the companies LEVA Arti Grafiche, Autotrasposti Fraconti, SAI Automazioni, supported by Chamber of Commerce of Milan The Committee actions have focused on an area, chosen as object of experimentation and called Concordia Sud Falck District (Sesto San Giovanni) EMAS registration in December 2006 Best practices - example 1:

9. 9 The SENOMI Management Committee is in charge of implementing the Environmental Program and therefore has the job of coordinating the EMAS eco-management and auditing system for the districts’ common areas and services (waste, parks and gardens, water, energy) and collaborating with local and private bodies to improve the environmental performances of the services themselves In the SENOMI project, the Environmental Program takes the form of an agreement between the players of the Falck Concordia Sud industrial district and those of the area – private and public entities – that have to ensure that it is implemented The implementation stage is coordinated and monitored by an Eco- Management System that provides instruments for checking the indicators identified by the Program, the procedures put in place and state of progress of the Environmental Program itself. This System has been validated by an independent and accredited third party Best practices - example 1:

10. 10  First EMAS registration in the field of homogeneous productive spheres projects  Private-public partnership  Many companies have joined EMAS individually  The experience can become a referring point at local and national level  Integration with other environmental local projects www.lifesenomi.it Best practices - example 1:

11. 11 Implementation of GPP (Green Public Procurement) in Regione Lombardia New regional regulation imposing GPP (l.r. 24/2006) Rationalization of procurements according to the new law Achievement of national targets (save of energy and reduction of CO2 emission) Call for tenders concerning communication, low impact vehicles purchase, high efficiency domestic appliances (more than 2 M€) Best practices - example 2:
