Strategies / Comments

  1. This target only captures CFIA's GHG emissions from its fleet sources (e.g. on-road vehicles, marine vessels, agricultural equipment, recreational vehicles and lawn and garden equipment).
  2. Excluded emission sources in certain instances are those from operations during which primary function is national safety or security.
  3. Indirect emission sources are excluded (e.g. business travel employee commuting, movement of goods, private mileage and outsourced activities).
  4. CFIA is developing a Ground Transportation Management Strategy; this strategy will include emissions reduction action items.

Surplus Electronic and Electrical Equipment Target


8.6 By March 31, 2014, each department will reuse or recycle all surplus electronic and electrical equipment (EEE) in an environmentally sound and secure manner.
Performance Measure RPP DPR
Target Status  
Existence of implementation plan for the disposal of all departmentally-generated EEE.

Yes

(Completed April 2010)

  
Total number of departmental locations with EEE implementation plan fully implemented, expressed as a percentage of all locations, by the end of the given fiscal year. FY 2011-12 80%  
FY 2012-13 90%  
FY 2013-14 90%  

Strategies / Comments

  1. Location is defined as all CFIA locations where CFIA personnel maintain a physical presence.
  2. Number of locations within the Agency is 445.

Printing Unit Reduction Target


8.7 By March 31, 2013, each department will achieve an 8:1 average ratio of office employees to printing units. Departments will apply target where building occupancy levels, security considerations, and space configuration allow.
Performance Measure RPP DPR
Target Status  
Ratio of departmental office employees to printing units in fiscal year 2010-11, where building occupancy levels, security considerations and space configuration allow.    
Ratio of departmental office employees to printing units at the end of the given fiscal year, where building occupancy levels, security considerations and space configuration allow. FY 2011-12    
FY 2012-13    

Strategies / Comments

  1. Printing units are defined as: desktop printers, network printers, multifunctional devices (MFD), photocopiers, faxes and scanners. This definition has been expanded since 2011-2012 when it only comprised desktop printers, network printers, MFDs and photocopiers.
  2. Work locations with less than 20 CFIA employees have been excluded because efficiency increase opportunities are minimal. Further, all laboratories are excluded, as many of their units are connected to specialized equipment and cannot be replaced by a MFD.
  3. Excluded printing units include plotters, label printers, and thermal printers.
  4. Printing unit inventories will be determined using software that counts all networked printing units, as well as units connected to networked computers at one date in time. Faxes are non-networked and will be counted manually; a physical count will also be completed to exclude certain locations.
  5. Office employees are defined as indeterminate staff.
  6. The method used to determine the number of office employees will be CFIA's internal accommodation reports with employees located in scoped-out facilities subtracted.
  7. The estimated number of employees subject to the target is approximately 4,800 - 74% of CFIA indeterminate staff

Paper Consumption Target


8.8 By March 31, 2014, each department will reduce internal paper consumption per office employee by 20%. Each department will establish a baseline between 2005-2006 and 2011-2012, and applicable scope.
Performance Measure RPP DPR
Target Status  
Number of sheets of internal office paper purchased or consumed per office employee in the 2008-2009 fiscal year. 3,702  
Cumulative reduction (or increase) in paper consumption, expressed as a percentage, relative to baseline year selected. FY 2011-12 -10%  
FY 2012-13 -15%  
FY 2013-14 -20%  

Strategies / Comments

  1. Office employees are defined as indeterminate, term, student, seasonal, and as required staff.
  2. Paper is defined as printer paper purchased in bundles of 500 sheets
  3. The method used to determine paper consumption is a manual count of printer paper bundles purchased by canvassing CFIA locations with over 30 people. This accounts for approximately 70% of CFIA staff. The method used to calculate the remaining 30% is an extrapolation based on the known 70% as this is a reasonable representation of employee base.
  4. The method used to determine the number of office employees is using the CFIA Human Resources "Population Snapshot" website. Year end population totals will be used as the number of office employees for each fiscal year.
  5. The number of employees subject to the target changes in a given year as it is based on employee numbers. For the baseline year 2008-2009, the count performed March 31, 2009 was 7,053 employees.

Green Meetings Target


8.9 By March 31, 2012, each department will adopt a guide for greening meetings.
Performance Measure RPP DPR
Target Status  
Presence of a green meeting guide. (Optional in RPP 2011-12) Yes  

Strategies / Comments

  1.  Adoption of the green meetings guide is defined by its approval by senior management.
  2. The Guide is applicable to all internal CFIA meetings as well as external meetings with other government departments, industry and stakeholders. It provides green options in the areas of hospitality, paper use, procurement, accommodations, and travel.
  3. The Guide defines the roles and responsibilities of CFIA managers, meeting planners and the National Environmental Office in terms of its application and implementation.
  4. The Guide will be communicated to all staff via the CFIA internal newsletter.

Green Procurement Targets

8.10 As of April 1, 2011, each department will establish at least 3 SMART green procurement targets to reduce environmental impacts.
