In the same way as you are doing as a command line argument:
Code:
def getEnvVarValue(envVar):
    tmpVal = os.getenv(envVar)
    if not tmpVal:
        print("Environment variable: [%s] not set." % (envVar))
        sys.exit(1)
        
    retValue = tmpVal.strip("'") 
    return retValue


Bin=getEnvVarValue('BIN')
mpdCmd="%s/%s/mpd" % (MPI_ROOTDIR, Bin)
mpdtraceCmd="%s/%s/mpdtrace" % (MPI_ROOTDIR, Bin)
mpdtraceCmd2="%s/%s/mpdtrace -l" % (MPI_ROOTDIR, Bin)

I hope it helps!

CPURC(8)						      System Manager's Manual							  CPURC(8)

NAME
cpurc, termrc - boot script SYNOPSIS
cpurc termrc DESCRIPTION
After the kernel boots, it execs /boot (see root(3)), which in turn execs /$cputype/init. Init(8) sets the $service environment variable to cpu or terminal, and then invokes the appropriate rc script to bring the system up. Based on the values of $sysname and $terminal these scripts start appropriate network processes and administrative daemons and enable swap- ping. Cpurc sets /env/boottime to the time cpurc was executed and /env/NPROC to a value suitable for parallel compilation in mk(1). These files should be edited by local installations to reflect the configuration of their systems. SOURCE
