TES is experienced in conducting detailed environmental regulatory compliance audits of industrial facilities.  TES has developed audit checklists utilizing state and federal protocols to make sure that air, water and waste compliance is thoroughly investigated.  Following the audit, TES can work with you to identify areas where improvement is needed to achieve your company's objectives.  If the requirements of the appropriate governing agency rules are followed, many findings of environmental compliance audits are privileged.  Findings are often protected from enforcement for a limited period of time in order to provide incentives for businesses to remedy noted deficiencies. 

Key Benefits of Third-Party Environmental Audits

• Tours of the facility with third-party assistance can help your environmental compliance staff members view operations from the perspective of regulators.
• Audits may help to identify more efficient means of managing air, water and waste issues. 
• Audits can prepare environmental compliance officers for inspections by regulatory authorities.  Self-audits provide an opportunity to provide requested files for review and to determine whether adequate records are being maintained.
• TES will work with environmental managers to resolve recordkeeping and compliance issues and can help to identify maintenance and repair issues.

Capabilities

TES environmental audits can be scoped to cover every environmental regulatory program for an entire site, or they may be designed to cover a specific regulation or portion of a site.  For example, an audit might cover only the surface coating operation for a large manufacturer.  An audit can also be designed to cover only one regulatory area, such as the Clean Air Act (CAA).
