Packaged Engagement

Compliance
Audit

A focused review of your air, water, and waste obligations — with a plan you can actually run. We find the gaps before an inspector does.

Most enforcement actions are not surprises. They are small, overlooked gaps that compound quietly until an inspector arrives. A Compliance Audit is a deliberate look at the five areas those gaps come from — done once, on purpose, before it costs anything.

We wrote about those five risk areas in detail: The 5 environmental compliance risks that keep manufacturers up at night .

What We Review

Five areas, reviewed against how your facility runs today

01

Air emissions & permits

Title V and minor source permit limits checked against how the facility actually runs today, plus the status of every required compliance certification.

02

Hazardous waste (RCRA)

Generator status, manifest records, training documentation, and storage area conditions — the four places RCRA findings almost always come from.

03

Water & stormwater (NPDES)

Permit limits compared against your recent discharge monitoring reports, and whether your SWPPP is current, implemented, and understood on the floor.

04

Emerging contaminants (PFAS)

Historical and current use of PFAS-containing materials, discharge data, and exposure under the PFOA/PFOS CERCLA designation.

05

Recordkeeping & reporting

Every reporting obligation mapped to a named owner and a date — the gap that produces enforcement even when operations are fully compliant.

What You Get

Three deliverables, all of them usable on Monday

  1. 01

    Findings report

    What we reviewed, what we found, and the regulatory basis for each finding — written so an operations manager can act on it, not just a lawyer.

  2. 02

    Prioritized action plan

    Findings ranked by exposure and by effort, so you know what to fix this month and what can wait for the next capital cycle.

  3. 03

    Compliance calendar

    Every permit renewal, submission, and self-monitoring deadline for the year ahead, with an owner and a backup named for each.

Who It's For

This is the right engagement if any of these sound familiar

  • You inherited the compliance function and are not sure what you inherited.
  • The person who knew the reporting cadence has left.
  • Production, hours, fuel, or equipment changed and permits were never revisited.
  • An inspection is coming and you would rather find the gaps first.

Start with a conversation, not a contract

Tell us about your facility and we'll tell you honestly whether an audit is what you need — or whether something narrower would serve you better.
