May '11 PR Rankings Issue - Odwyerpr.com

Midwest PR firm that deals exclusively
with environmental, health
and safety issues.
The firm was founded in 1994
and currently maintains a staff of
25. Clients are primarily public
utilities and major manufacturers
who turn to ETC for support
when they have an emerging
EHS issue, or one that has
already attracted public attention
and concern.
ETC works with industrial
clients facing state/federal consent
orders for environmental
pollution. ETC also provides
communication assistance to
clients with construction, demolition,
and remediation projects
that will directly affect neighboring
properties. Sometimes,
clients seek assistance when
government action shines a new
light on some aspect of their
operations.
Communication plans and
strategies are custom-designed
to fit the situation, and may
include media relations, community
outreach, public meetings
and involvement, opinion surveys,
ad campaigns, and other
forms of employee/stakeholder
communications. Topics range
from buried wastes, contaminated
buildings, impacted soils, polluted
streams, and contaminated
groundwater, safe drinking
water, and sewage collection/treatment,
to plant odors,
toxic emissions, and indoor air.
ETC has been repeatedly recognized
for its outstanding work
by PRSA, IABC, the
International Academy of
Communications Arts and
Sciences/MarComm, the
International Academy of the
Visual Arts, and others in national
and international PR award
competitions since 1996.
