ENVIRO
CONSULTING
Dear
Intern:
Congratulations!
I am pleased to offer you an internship at Enviro Consulting.
You will begin effective immediately. During your internship,
you will be working with a client called Energy One, a utility
company. Energy One, has just been sued by the EPA for violating
the Clean Air Act. As a result of this bad publicity, their
stock prices have dropped considerably. Eric Cohen, the VP
of Sales, wants to know how to resolve this problem. Should
they fight the law suit? Or, should they settle with the EPA
and implement a new technological solution? He is also very
concerned about the public image of the company. He would
like a report by the end of the month.
Before
you begin your research, please read through the following
New York Times article which will give you some background
on the problem.
7
Utilities Sued by U.S. on Charges of Polluting the Air
After
you have read this article, there are a number of resources
for you to use for your research:
Background
This section provides you with an Annual Report of the company.
This is a report written for the company's stockholders which
includes information on its finances, organization, and public
relations.
Experts
These CDs of expert interviews offer advice on how to solve
this problem.
Sample
Report
This report gives you an example of a past project and a sense
of what your end product might look like.
Resources
These resources provide helpful links to environmental laws
& policies, economics, technologies, environmental science
as well as a dictionary. I
would highly recommend that you begin your research by checking
out the links about acid rain under the environmental
science section.
I
am excited for the opportunity to work with you on this project.
Sincerely,
Janet
