 Regulatory Compliance Program Development |
RCRA,
TSCA, CERCLA, SARA, DOT, NIOSH, OSHA, and ACGIH are abbreviations that should be familiar
to anyone engaged in business where hazardous materials/wastes are involved. The Code of
Federal Regulations Titles 29, 40 and 49, and the California Code of Regulations Titles 8,
13 and 22 are among the most constantly changing regulations in the country today. Any
organization dealing with hazardous materials/wastes recognizes that a full-time employee
could easily be dedicated to keeping up with the constant changes promulgated by the
agencies responsible for these regulations, not to mention keeping your organization in
compliance. KWA recognizes that not all organizations have in-house resources dedicated to environmental and occupational health and safety compliance. We can cost-effectively provide the services of an environmental and occupational health and safety professional to assist. The small cost of regulatory compliance services can more than offset hefty fines and possible jail terms for non-compliance. KWA provides an update service to keep you apprised of regulatory compliance issues. An initial survey of your organization’s operations is conducted. The survey results are then evaluated and a report of current compliance levels and needed compliance is provided. This is followed by a regulatory compliance plan which includes monthly updates on regulatory changes, and semi-annual reviews conducted at your facility. The goal of the Regulatory Compliance Program is to provide you, the manager, with accurate, current information appropriate to your operations with sufficient advance notice to provide smooth transition to new operational procedures when needed. Another aspect of regulatory compliance is dealing with inspections. KWA will support and assist your organization during any regulatory agency inspection, and assist you when responding to the results of these inspections. |
