HSA’s professionals possess a vast sum of experience auditing facilities, training employees, preparing permit applications and correspondence and negotiating favorable permit terms on behalf of many industrial clients. We specialize in developing compliance strategies that assist you with obtaining regulatory approvals, facilitating permit acquisition and controlling costs. Our experience covers all aspects of hazardous waste management, ranging from process engineering and waste minimization to the design and implementation of protection/remediation programs for air, soils, surface water and groundwater resources.

We understand the objective of a regulatory compliance program is to determine the applicability and status of compliance with the myriad of complex governmental regulations. Therefore, comparing site activities to regulatory standards is a cost-effective method of managing risks and identifying potential liabilities.

HSA’s inspections and recommendations concerning safety, health or environmental regulations result in assisting management’s intent to control: 1) workers’ protection through engineered controls, 2) materials entering the facility, such as solvents, 3) materials, personnel, activities and conditions occurring on-site, such as worker right-to-know, processes and spills of materials or other loss-preventable activities, 4) impacts to site attributes, such as wetlands or zoning, 5) emissions and wastes leaving the site, such as air emissions, wastewaters or solid wastes, and 6) waste minimization through process changes, and/or material selection, recycling or reuse.

Increasingly, governmental agencies have shifted compliance regulations from a "discipline by discipline" approach to a multimedia approach. This new approach is typified by agency inspections that concurrently address the requirements of SARA Title III, OSHA and waste management and minimization programs. For these reasons, an ongoing multimedia regulatory audit program continues to be the best way to manage risks and reduce liability exposures. The advantage to an ongoing consulting relationship is that it allows for quick response to virtually any facility need in a manner that ensures minimal disruption to your production or startup schedule of any capital project.
