Frequently Asked Environmental Compliance Questions
What will environmental work cost me?
We bill $80/hour with fixed fees available for well-defined projects, such as Air-Permits and Storm Plans. All work is 100% guaranteed: if you're not satisfied you don't pay.
Who else uses you? Do you do environmental work for other manufacturing companies in San Antonio?
Our client list is confidential, but we specialize in family businesses that have grown up into corporations, plus branch corporations of large companies.
Can such a small company do the job?
That depends on the job. Major cleanups require contacts with major companies, which we provide. But your biggest needs are the on-going ones, the compliance issues that nag at you in week in, week out. We provide you with customized programs for your weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual and multi-year obligations. We train your people to handle as much or as little of the work as you choose. We provide project ticklers for your non-routine work, and customize your routines with a Hazard Control Checklist to fit your exact operation. We are constantly on the lookout for ways you can become exempt from each regulatory obligation.
At what point should I hire you, and at what point should I hire a full-time employee to handle environmental compliance?
It depends on your process. Call us to find out, there's no charge for the initial call. Most manufacturers need us by the time they have 30 employees, and most manufacturers decide to hire someone full time by the time they reach 500 employees. However, everyone could use a "little bit" of us. The cost to get your full time EHS specialist "up to speed" on all rules is astronomical. Usually we can quickly tell you where you stand by asking you a few questions. Even operations that have their own professionals can benefit from our customized Hazard Control Checklist and an occasional compliance review with us.
