Prepare And Maintain Permit Documentation, Monitoring Records, And Regulatory Reports That Withstand Audit And Inspection Scrutiny.
Conduct Compliance Inspections And Risk Assessments To Detect Gaps, Document Findings, And Recommend Corrective And Preventive Actions.
Advise Operations And Project Teams On Control Measures (e.g., Spill Prevention, Waste Handling, Emissions Limits) To Meet Permit Conditions And Standards.
