Environmental Compliance Audits
The purpose of an environmental compliance audit is to: 1) evaluate a facility’s compliance status with applicable local, state and federal regulations pertaining to the management of hazardous substances; 2) identify non-compliance with these regulations; and 3) provide recommendations for correcting non-compliance issues. The issues addressed by an environmental compliance audit are facility-specific but typically include: air quality, solid and hazardous waste management, wastewater management, stormwater management, storage tanks, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA; a.k.a “Superfund”), material storage and transportation, hazard communication standards, SARA Title III Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know, and pollution prevention.
The scope of work for an environmental compliance audit includes a review of specific information provided by the facility; an inspection of the facility operations; and, preparation of a report. If an environmental compliance audit identifies non-compliance issues, then recommendations are made for correcting these issues.
