Environmental Consulting Services


We offer three types of consulting services to companies:


Compliance and management audits

We help you determine your environmental compliance status and evaluate your Environmental Management System. This can often be done in a couple of days. We would come to your facility and review your documents and provide you with an independent assessment of your compliance status. All of our auditing services can be conducted through attorney-client privilege at the direction of your in-house legal counsel if you wish.

A compliance audit involves review of past and current documents and records. It tells you wether you are in compliance on the day the audit is done. It is essentially a snap shot of your compliance status. It answers the question: "Is anything wrong today?".

An environmental management audit involves extensive interviews with plant and management personnel. It answers the question: "If something goes wrong tomorrow or next month, will the plant be able to handle it?" It goes far beyond mere compliance.

A compliance audit is like an annual physical examination. It tells you if you are in good environmental health on the day the audit is done. A management audit is like having an evaluation of your lifestyle. It predicts your future environmental health.

Turnkey environmental support.

We act as your environmental manager under a retainer agreement and handle all your environmental issues including permit applications and report filings. We assist you in applying for permits or dealing with compliance issues concerning your permits. We have assisted many corporate clients in obtaining air permits. Specifically, we have helped our clients get out of Title V air permits and into synthetic minor permits resulting in significant cost savings and reduction in environmental liabilities.

We generally do not bill by the hours. What we offer is a retainer agreement under which we provide specific services for you in exchange for a monthly retainer fee.
