Abstract: A substrate for construction of an article of clothing for a fur covered pet made of a series of layers of specialized fabric assembled in a specific configuration so as to impart synergistic cooling and heating properties to the animal's microclimate. The various fabrics are engineered to have a specialized function that they impart, such that when combined, their various properties allow the control of the temperature and humidity of the volume of air between the animal's skin and the article of clothing, thus aiding in keeping the animal from overheating or freezing.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for tracking and documenting environmental compliance in a pulp mill, related primarily to the bypassing of liquid hazardous pollutants from a capture and treatment system. The method and system provide continuous information regarding the input materials, the output products, and the operations of equipment in the pulping process. The continuous information is provided to a central processor for determindation of emission levels that exceed certain predetermined levels. The method and system permit personnel to verify compliance with environmental regulations, verify the reliability of pollutant collection and treatment equipment and record the actions taken to correct an inappropriate emission or equipment failure.
