The culture surrounding waste management compliance is changing. Environmental services businesses must adapt in response.
While the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has long worked alongside state and local government bodies to regulate waste management, the level of scrutiny is increasing across the sector. As a result, waste management businesses must adapt their service models to handle a wider range of waste types in a safe, sustainable way. In our white paper, "The New Waste Management Compliance Culture," we explore the general regulatory climate surrounding a variety of waste management segments and provide guidance on how businesses can develop funding strategies in response. We cover key issues such as:
- The increased scrutiny placed on landfills as the EPA works to enforce regulations aimed at reducing the amount of waste going to landfills, ensuring it is properly contained, while enforcing best practices around caring for the landfill during closure and beyond.
- The importance of careful and efficient documentation surrounding hazardous waste management, with a particular focus on the role modern digital solutions can play in improving tracking and monitoring.
- The complexity of handling household hazardous waste, especially in terms of informing the community of best practice, maintaining compliance in your collection practices and determining which regulatory laws impact different types of household hazardous waste.
- The expanded role of state and local laws in medical waste management, including a look at how best practices foster employee safety.
Responding to the new regulatory culture requires a combination of technical, equipment and business innovation.
