Are you aware of all the environmental regulations that may apply to your small business or municipality?


Hazardous and Solid Waste. . . Storm Water. . . Waste Water. . . Petroleum Storage. . . Drinking Water. . . Air Pollution. . .

Don’t get caught after-the-fact about state or EPA regulations you weren’t aware of. The Environmental Assistance Office has developed an environmental compliance self-assessment guide as a starting point in identifying pertinent regulations that may apply to your operations. Workshop attendees will receive a copy of the new self assessment guide and will learn how to use it, as well as learning how to access environmental assistance resources.


These FREE compliance workshops are provided by the VT Department of Environmental Conservation’s Environmental Assistance Office and will be presented by non-regulatory staff in the Small Business and Municipal Compliance Assistance Programs.   All are welcome.
