The Sustainability, Resilience, and Project-governance requirements depend on effective environmental permitting. Environmental permitting encompasses accomplishing on air quality, water quality, effective waste handling and disposal, and protection of the soil-environment. The US has the proven legislation, regulation, and underlying policies for effective environmental permitting, via (not-limited-to) the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), clean air act (CAA), clean water act (CWA), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), and Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA).
The continual-learning on environmental regulatory requirements including the permitting processes would help support on the sustainability, resilience, and project-governance needs of the hour. This workshop topics will comprehensively include, as follows: air permitting; water-withdrawal approval(s); public water systems (PWSs); municipal and industrial wastewater – National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and Local permitting; stormwater or wet-weather flow(s) permitting; solid and hazardous waste handling and disposal; oil/chemical and other storage tanks; spill prevention; and, environmental compliance.
The workshop will benefit environmental engineers, scientists, and associated professionals towards leadership on environmental permitting.
