Examples are Title V air compliance assurance program, NPDES wastewater compliance program, hazardous waste management system, TSCA compliance program, drinking water compliance program, Oil Pollution Act – Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plans, stormwater management (stormwater pollution prevention plans), and refrigerant management program. Additionally, developed and implemented comprehensive environmental management systems and compliance assurance programs.
  • Completed numerous projects in support of various environmental compliance and reporting activities for various types of companies/industries.

  • Supported numerous clients with Air Quality compliance activities and permitting strategy, and permitting activities such as (1) developing permit applications [Title V, State Construction (New Source Review or NSR), Major NSR, and/or operational approval processes], (2) developing air emissions calculations, (3) evaluating pollution control strategy and equipment, (4) performing air quality impact modeling, and (5) performing Best Available Control Technology (BACT) analysis.

Environmental policy and strategy - Strategic planning, Environmental applicability analysis, and Environmental technical and regulatory management

  • Supported a global company with their first manufacturing entry into the U.S. which included a greenfield development of a major manufacturing facility. The project included support with environmental due diligence, environmental regulatory applicability and compliance, and environmental permitting.
  • Supported numerous clients with understanding and evaluating the impact of environmental regulations on planned facility modifications, implementation of new regulations or initiatives, evaluating air pollution control regulatory and technical requirements, and acquisition of new facilities or operations (or and divesture of facilities or operations) or planned greenfield projects.

  • Completed numerous projects for various types of companies/industries with regulatory compliance and assurance activities related to understanding and implementing such regulations as: air quality regulations (Boiler NESHAP MACT, Miscellaneous Organic NESHAP (MON), RICE MACT, various NSPS standards, GHG mandatory monitoring rule, retrospective PSD analysis, and retrospective NESHAP major source evaluation), hazardous waste management, Section 608 refrigerant (LDAR) management, and TSCA Reform (2016 Lautenberg Chemical Safety Act) and TSCA management.

Environmental compliance auditing

  • Completed over 50 environmental compliance audits at various types of facilities and operations. These audits were typical regulatory compliance-based audits (multi-media; all environmental regulations) with some considering risks outside of typical environmental regulations. Theses audits covered facilities (operations) such as specialty chemicals manufacturers, integrated pulp & paper mills, inorganic chemical manufacturers, oil & gas, food manufacturing, commercial solid and hazardous waste management facilities, chemical and petrochemical toll processors, bulk terminals, warehouses, and various other manufacturers.

Negotiating environmental enforcement and/or violations (non-compliance)

  • Supported chemicals manufacturing client with responding to a significant legal request from the State EPA and the U.S. EPA, which included support with strategy and negotiating with the agencies.
  • Supported numerous clients with strategically and technically responding to Federal and State regulatory agency non-compliance or notice-of-violation situations.

Environmental Information Management Systems (EMIS)
