Choose the right perspective
Match the person's regulatory focus to your question, since air permitting, wastewater limits and corporate regulatory policy call for different experience. Also consider whether you need someone who ran compliance at a single site or someone who oversaw it across several facilities or at the corporate level.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you keep track of permit conditions and reporting deadlines across a complex site?
- 02What do you do in the first days after a new air or water regulation is finalized that affects your facility?
- 03How do you prepare a site for an agency inspection, and what findings have you seen most often?
