Participants will share experiences meeting challenges with operating during a pandemic, Environmental Justice issues, the importance of Source Emissions Testing and updates from the EPA.
Who Should Attend:
- Permitting staff are encouraged to join their Compliance and Enforcement peers, to gain a better understanding on how limits are translated into effective compliance (testing and monitoring schemes) and to understand the needs to make permit limits enforceable.
- Stack testers, both beginners and experienced compliance and non-compliance staff, are invited to join one of the Source Emission Stack Testing training sessions, which will be running concurrently and followed by a panel discussion.
- Inspectors, both new as well as seasoned, are encouraged to attend this workshop to share experiences and to bring questions to the table to discuss.
- Any agency staff member who would like a better understanding of recent “pollutants of concern” and the compliance challenges associated with the likes of PFAS and Ethylene Oxide.
