Welcome
Founded in 1967, the Arkansas Environmental Federation is a 501c(3) non-profit education association with more than 350 members, the vast majority of them businesses and industries that deal with environmental, safety, and health regulations on a day-to-day basis. The AEF focuses on practical, common-sense laws and regulations based on sound science; a teamwork approach to compliance; and waste minimization and pollution prevention. The AEF enables information to be exchanged on a daily basis between its members, government regulators, and policy makers.

Executive Director's Update
The Arkansas Environmental Federation is dedicated to promoting environmental protection within Arkansas’ manufacturing and business sectors. If you or your facility has environmental responsibilities, the AEF could be your primary source for environmental, safety and health training, professional development, regulatory review, legislative monitoring and professional networking. Our cost-effective workshops on the pressing environmental issues facing Arkansas’ manufacturers are convenient and timely and always bring together the regulators and the regulated community in a non-confrontational manner.
The AEF is committed to a balanced, effective and efficient approach to environmental protection. We understand that job creation often comes with an environmental impact. Corporate resources are not unlimited. Investments and efforts aimed at the environment must, therefore, be designed to accomplish environmental gains in an efficient manner, including Arkansas specific training for environmental professionals.
