AIR PERMITTING AND COMPLIANCE CONSULTING
Managing air compliance in today’s competitive business environment requires more than a background in applicable regulations. It requires extensive knowledge of not only industrial process operations but also fundamental business practices. Successfully navigating complex air quality compliance issues requires combining industry and regulatory experience with a thorough cost-benefit analysis.

STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING
Today’s business and political climate forces your industrial capital project to face a complex permitting process that may include intense public and regulatory scrutiny. That’s why obtaining the optimum environmental permit is much more than filling out the correct applications … it is a negotiation; and strategic permitting is the act of managing that negotiation to obtain the most flexible options available to address both short and long term business needs.
PERMITTING IS A STRATEGIC PROCESS
In our role as strategic permitting experts, understanding your business needs, goals, and processes is the first step: raw material receipt, storage and movement; production and product storage, loading and transport; waste stream management; and supply chain management all play a role in the permitting process. Change in one or more of those processes can and will affect a permit. Our strategic permitting process starts with understanding and helping you design all processes to achieve maximum permit flexibility for growth.
WE INVENTED "STRATEGIC PERMITTING" FOR A REASON
The hard reality is that environmental permitting is a dynamic process, and you are faced with a myriad of options: which permits to obtain and when to apply; which raw materials, finished materials, emissions and processes should be permitted; do you permit to address current business needs or potential long-term business plans? Each decision you make will have long-lasting consequences. We are experts in business processes, process engineering, and environmental permitting and will help you weigh the advantages, disadvantages, and overall costs from a business and engineering perspective. We know how to obtain environmental permits that minimize your labor resources and avoid more stringent controls. We practice strategic permitting, guiding your permit process to obtain the flexibility you need to profit and grow.
