Compliance and Enforcement
has created an advisory system to help you quickly
and easily recognize the intent and utility of its
various outreach efforts. Each advisory will follow
a common abbreviated format to outline the issue,
help you determine if you are affected, describe what
you can do, and how to get more information. Besides
posting Compliance Advisories on the web, where possible,
a target audience will be reached by distribution
to various industry associations, interest groups
or through direct mailings.
Enforcement
Alerts - anticipated enforcement activities |
Enforcement
Alerts highlight areas of concern within
the DEP where some change will likely result
in increased observation of non-compliance
and/or more strict enforcement. The change
might be a new or modified rule, a shift
in DEP policy, or a targeted effort to address
a specific environmental issue. By heeding
a Enforcement Alert, you may be able to
get ahead of the change and avoid non-compliance
as well as an associated potentially strict
enforcement approach.
|
Warnings -
emerging patterns of non-compliance |
Compliance Advisory Warnings highlight non-compliance
issues experienced by others. These problems
may be common or recurring or they may be
newly emerging serious problems. By heeding
Compliance Advisory Warnings you can benefit
from the experiences of others and avoid
common mistakes. Widespread response to
Warnings may prevent an issue from rising
to the level of an Enforcement Alert where
DEP must initiate new steps to address a
problem.

Updates - incentives and compliance assistance
opportunities |
Compliance Advisory Updates highlight
an opportunity to improve compliance on
your own, reduce your liability or potentially
avoid regulation altogether. Compliance
Advisory Updates will list the benefits
of specific incentives, initiatives, programs
and tools as they become available. |
