If done correctly, this will streamline the processes somewhat withoutpreventing the students from understanding what the program is doing and how it works. In addition, wewould like to change the ArcMap application so that plume locations can be designated by mouse-click,vs. hand entry of

Product prices continue to fall while production costs rise. In order toreduce production costs, some companies look to improved technology, employee layoff, facilityrelocation, etc. The search for operational excellence seems to be more intense with each passingday. Many companies have adopted Lean, Six Sigma or Total Productive Maintenance initiativesfor improving operational effectiveness and efficiency. 5S is a traditional management techniquethat helps organize a workplace by making it clean and free of
