3 HOW TO USE THIS BOOK The environmental self-audit in this book should be useful anytime in the business life cycle while the business is in the planning stages, during regular business operations, and before an expansion, operating change or purchase of a new business. If all diagnostic questions are answered yes or not applicable, contact state and local government agencies to confirm that the business is in compliance with all pertinent environmental regulations, and to determine when current environmental permits should be renewed. If the response to some or all of the diagnostic questions in the self-audit is no or cannot determine, it indicates that your business may need to conduct a more thorough evaluation of your environmental compliance. Use the results of the self-audit to create a working list of the areas that need to be evaluated. You may need to contact an environmental firm, consulting engineer or an environmental attorney to obtain expert assistance in making necessary operating changes or completing permit applications. State and local government agencies may be contacted to explain the permitting process and to answer specific questions. A series of shortcuts is offered below for the reader who wishes to glance quickly through the text.

5 INTRODUCTION Many small companies find it difficult to keep abreast of changes in environmental regulations and permitting procedures. However, staying current is important because a company that ignores these regulations may be polluting the air, land and water, and may also face significant administrative, civil and/or criminal penalties involving both personal and corporate liability. This guide is intended to help small businesses in New York State comply with local, state and federal environmental regulations. Included is information for the company that is about to begin operations, for the business that has never examined its environmental impact before, and for the firm that is about to move, expand or embark on a new business venture. This guide may also be used to help any business that is trying to comply with environmental regulations. For small businesses with limited resources, the self-audit in this guide should serve as a preliminary self-diagnostic tool to identify areas of possible environmental compliance problems in the general regulatory categories of air, water, land use, petroleum and chemical storage tanks, solid waste and hazardous materials. Though not comprehensive, the environmental self-audit can prove worthwhile as a preventive strategy in much the same way that an internal financial audit can help companies avoid violations of local, state and federal tax laws. It can help companies in identifying and obtaining needed environmental permits. It can also help companies that do not need permits to change operating procedures to prevent damage to the environment and to comply with pollution prevention laws. Businesses that practice pollution prevention can benefit the environment by producing less waste and reducing the transfer of waste from one environmental media to another. Furthermore, business competitiveness can be improved through greater efficiency, wiser energy use, increased product quality and enhanced public image. However, often the greatest incentive to practicing pollution prevention is the company's financial bottom line. The self-audit is designed for non-expert business persons who need to evaluate whether their small businesses are ready to contact a local, state or federal environmental regulatory agency or other compliance assistance provider. Some small businesses may need to obtain comprehensive lists of relevant regulations and permits, scientific evaluation and documentation of environmental violations as well as a fully implemented program of operational changes before permit applications may be successfully filed. For these companies, the results of the self-audit may indicate that the services of a consulting engineer or attorney are needed. Technical assistance may be available from certain universities and agencies. The assistance of an attorney would also prove helpful for the small business that determines it may have committed violations of environmental regulations. Under the Clean Air Act, three New York State agencies participate in a program entitled "Small Business Stationary Source Technical and Environmental Compliance Assistance Program" which can provide free assistance to small businesses in understanding their obligations and achieving compliance with air emission regulations. The Empire State Development's Division for Small Business acts as the ombudsman and provides general information on State and Federal regulations, sets up workshops and handles complaints. The Environmental Facilities Corporation provides free technical The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 1
6 assistance to small business under its Small Business Assistance Program. The Department of Environmental Conservation's Division of Air Resources provides regulatory oversight. Don't be discouraged by the sometimes difficult process of identifying and addressing environmental compliance problems. Over the long haul, the measurable benefits of conducting and responding to regular environmental self-audits may include reductions in environmental hazards, exposure to enforcement, fines, insurance rates, waste handling costs and accident statistics. Benefits also may include an improved compliance record, improved worker health and a better work environment. Intangible benefits may include better relations with regulatory agencies, improved employee morale, favorable publicity and a stronger corporate reputation for integrity. The often complex environmental regulations, permit requirements and penalties for violations have been omitted from this guide. Additional information may be obtained by contacting environmental agencies and assistance organizations listed herein "A Resource Guide", many of which will also provide referrals to environmental engineering firms, consultants and attorneys. The guide provides extremely useful information, but there is no guarantee, expressed or implied, that the information provided will satisfy all possible conditions and requirements for businesses to comply successfully with all state and federal environmental regulations. Because the identifying numbers and names of relevant environmental permits may change from year to year, this information is also omitted from this guide. Remember, regulations are continually updated. When in doubt on whether a permit is required, or whether some new requirements have gone into effect consult with your New York State Department of Environmental Conservation regional office, or consult agencies in "A Resource Guide" for more information This publication is the result of the collaborative efforts of New York State economic development agencies, universities and environmental regulators, each of which recognized a need to assist small businesses with their environmental concerns. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the Empire State Development s Division for Small Business provided the staff, resources and technical assistance required for the development and publication of this guide as a statewide resource. Organizations that contributed ideas and resources to the Environmental Self Audit for Small Business include: the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation, the Chautauqua County Industrial Development Agency, the State University of New York College at Fredonia Center for Business and Industry and the State University College at Buffalo Center for Environmental Research and Education. The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 2
7 THE ENVIRONMENTAL SELF AUDIT FOR SMALL BUSINESSES Consider the following checklist as a guide for a diagnostic tour of a small business. Companies are advised to regularly conduct routine self-audits to evaluate compliance and determine what changes need to be made including new permits that are needed or when old permits should be renewed or revised. A firm that responds to the questions in this checklist should consider this self-auditing process as preparation for evaluating compliance with local, state and federal environmental regulatory guidelines. Review each chapter with a group of people who are most familiar with business operations, such as the company owner, operations manager, construction engineers, shipping, inventory, and purchasing managers and supervisory staff. Their responses to the self audit questions should indicate whether potential hazards or polluting activities are occurring that require permits and/or operational changes. The environmental self-audit is only one in a series of steps that a small business should take to determine its regulatory compliance and identify suitable methods of waste reduction. The audit checklist would be most effective when used with related tools, such as workshops and publications targeted to this topic. Unless a company has engineering and legal experts on staff who are familiar with local, state and federal environmental regulations, outside expertise will often be needed in the areas of regulatory requirements, relevant environmental control technologies, manufacturing operations and processes, legal considerations, management systems, scientific disciplines needed to identify potential hazards and environmental management practices at peer companies and facilities. Pragmatic, progressive companies will use the audit process to achieve two goals: to evaluate current business practices and to create management control systems, procedures and record keeping practices adequate to assure future compliance with environmental regulations. Remember that for many types of business activities, permits are necessary before the business opens, for the ongoing operation of the business, to expand a facility, in the event of a name change and upon the purchase of a fully permitted business.

8 SELF AUDIT CHECKLIST AIR Review each question carefully and check the appropriate box. Any "no" or cannot determine answers are indicators that a potential problem exists and should be investigated further. Take notes on the questions that received a "no" or a cannot determine response and use this self-audit information to create a working list of environmental compliance issues that may require further investigation. Whenever possible, add to this list your best estimate of the quantity, concentration and name of the material involved. In some instances, a "no" response may indicate operational changes or permits are necessary. However, this will not be true in every case. Further information from regulatory agencies, environmental engineers or attorneys may be needed to make this determination, as many regulatory issues are linked to the quantities of materials used or discarded in the air, land or water. Air emission is the release of any dust, fume, gas, mist, odor, smoke or vapor, or any combination of them, to the outside atmosphere. PLEASE NOTE: 6 NYCRR Part 201, Permits and Registrations, underwent a significant revision in 1996 and numerous small sources are now able to obtain a simplified Registration form or are no longer required to obtain a permit. However, other emission control and record keeping requirements may still apply even if your business is exempt from permitting. (1) If the company has air emissions, has the firm investigated whether it complies with state and federal requirements for these air emissions? (2) If the company's activities result in air emissions, have these been identified, measured and documented? (3) Does the company have an up-to-date site plan or blueprint showing all existing sources of air pollution? (4) Has the company evaluated the need for a facility Registration or Permit under 6 NYCRR Part 201? The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 4
9 (5) If the company installed a new boiler after June 9, 1989 with a heat input of 10 million BTU per hour or greater, was a DEC permit obtained and was EPA notified of the installation? (6) Does the company keep yearly records of all raw materials consumed in the manufacture of its products and does the firm use these raw material records to calculate annual emissions and confirm that any emission limits are not exceeded? (7) If the company burns any waste as fuel at its facility, has it determined whether a facility Registration or Permit under 6 NYCRR Part 201 is required to operate a stationary combustion unit? (8) If the company plans to construct a facility that is not specifically exempted from 6 NYCRR Part 201, has the firm obtained state approval to construct and operate the facility? (9) Does the company periodically monitor whether its facilities remain in compliance with the conditions and compliance certifications or the permit? (10) If a company with a currently registered or permitted facility plans to make a modification, has the company determined whether this change will subject the facility to additional or new legal (including notifications) requirements? (11) If there is an upset of any kind with the plant's air pollution equipment, are the appropriate government agencies required to be notified? If so, have they been? The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 5
10 (12) Has the company controlled all sources of potential neighborhood nuisances, such as dust from unpaved roads, conveyors or uncovered storage piles, or excessive noise from heavy equipment and trucks? (13) If the company has ever received complaints from neighbors regarding odors or paint particulate fallout from spraying operation, has the company eliminated or controlled these emissions and have the complaints stopped? (14) If the company is a dry cleaner and uses perchloroethylene solvent, is the facility in compliance with the requirements of 6 NYCRR Part 232? (15) If the company's activities result in noise pollution, has the firm investigated whether the volume, frequency and duration of excessive noise is in accordance with restrictions in municipal codes? (16) If gas or diesel-powered motor vehicles are used in the day-to-day operation of the business, is maintenance conducted on a regular basis to meet regular inspection standards? (17) If stationary engines are used at the business, have emissions levels been tested and has any needed permit or Registration been obtained? (18) For graphic arts companies, has compliance with 6 NYCRR Part 234 and the EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) been evaluated? (19) For funeral homes and veterinary facilities which operate crematories, has compliance with requirements of 6 NYCRR Subpart been evaluated? The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 6
11 (20) For mineral products industries, has compliance with the EPA New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Hot Mix Asphalt (Subpart I) and Nonmetallic Mineral Processing (Subpart OOO) been evaluated? (21) For industries which operate solvent degreasers, has compliance with 6 NYCRR Part 226 and the EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) Subpart T been evaluated? (22) For industries which use surface coatings to produce products such as metal or wood furniture, has compliance with 6 NYCRR Part 228 and the EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) been evaluated? (23) If your business has a gasoline dispensing site, does it comply with the vapor recovery requirements of 6 NYCRR Part 230? The Environmental Self-Audit for Small Businesses 7
12 SELF AUDIT CHECKLIST WATER Review each question carefully and check the appropriate box. Any "no" or cannot determine answers are indicators that a potential problem exists and should be investigated further. Take notes on the questions that received a "no" or a cannot determine response and use this self-audit information to create a working list of environmental compliance issues that may require further investigation. Whenever possible, add to this list your best estimate of the quantity, concentration and name of the material involved.
