2007 Schaeffer Award Recognizes Robert Birkland

During his time at Arcata Graphics, Birkland participated in a committee that wrote regulations for the printing industry; these regulations were the basis for the Clean Air Act. Recognizing the need to educate groups on the various processes that the EPA was planning to regulate under the Clean Air Act, Birkland partnered with Dr. William Schaeffer and Gerald Bender to write a chapter in the 1992 book, Air Pollution Engineering Manual. This manual continues to be an outstanding technical and educational reference guide for the industry.
