The Environmental Auditing: California Compliance Guide is a tool for assessing a California facility’s compliance with applicable federal, state, and local environmental regulations. Environmental rules in California are often more stringent and complex than corresponding federal programs; moreover, a number of regulations in California have no federal counterpart. This guide, developed to help ensure that audits meet California’s unique regulatory challenges, is an indispensible resource for manufacturing and service companies operating in California. It is used by environmental and occupational health and safety professionals, attorneys, and corporate counsel.
