Communication/EPA Chemical Inventory System & Labeling System. Now in use in two Fortune
100 companies. System includes MSDS management, chemical inventory to the component
level, government reporting, scanning, barcoding and faxing of information of over 19,000
chemicals. The application won the company’s “ACE” award. Originally saved company $57,000
plus a $5000 per year maintenance fee. Now mimicked by several other companies throughout
the U.S.
Taken two facilities to small quantity generator status, a greater than 50% reduction in hazardous
waste was realized in 1996 alone.
Discovered pharmaceutical production operation previously recognized by EPA and the sanitary
district as a “Pharmaceutical Manufacturer” did not meet the regulatory definition of
“Pharmaceutical Manufacturer;” therefore pharmaceutical regulations did not apply. Interacted
with EPA and sanitary district until they agreed with this finding and received a letter from each
stating facility was released from further regulation as such.
Obtained rare letter from EPA stating a Storm Water Discharge Permit was not required from the
facility.
Reduced facility’s exposure from a Title V air permitted site to a “Smaller Source.”
