Three finalists, including an award winner, are chosen in each category by a panel of environmental experts. Finalists are announced in late March and award winners will be announced at the Environmental Initiative Awards dinner on May 15, 2008. In addition to the winners in each category, a Partnership of the Year Award will also be given at the awards dinner.
