The Company’s tradition and reputation for professionalism has been earned over the years by the dedicated efforts of our employees. It is a challenge that demands hard work and adherence to our environmental policy. We must strive to be a good environmental neighbor and a leader in the environmental community.
The guidelines in this policy are general and may not be applicable to all regulations and situations. However, basic compliance of environmental rules and regulations are to be followed.
It is the policy of the Company to comply with local, state, and federal environmental regulations. Management and employees at all levels must follow the guidelines set forth by the environmental compliance officer of the Company. Guidelines established by the environmental compliance officer include, but are not limited to:
- Documentation of operations, production
- Documentation of inspection of operation and facility
- Reporting of malfunctions and deviations of process equipment or site
- Attendance at training
- Interaction with representatives of environmental agencies
- Correct any environmental deficiencies in a reasonable time period
- Response to complaints and report to environmental compliance officer
- Maintenance of equipment required for compliance
- Conduct required measurements of plant processes
Any employee who does not comply with the Environmental Policy faces disciplinary action, which could result in corrective action up to and including termination. In keeping with the employer’s employment-at-will policy, an employee’s supervisor, after consultation with the appropriate general supervisor, upper management and the environmental compliance officer, has the discretion to discharge the employee after an environmental policy violation.
