Environmental considerations are an integral part of routine business for all organizations today. Successful businesses have operating and capital investment budgets for environmental assessment and control. The best environmental programs are those that integrate environmental planning into strategic management and business planning. Focusing on phased implementation and execution based on requirements and risk determination is smart business planning. Attempting to frontload total environmental compliance costs in a short period of time is unrealistic and often unachievable, resulting in cost inefficiency and compliance shortfalls. Shotgun approaches attempt to hit as much as possible at one time hoping that enough is hit to protect your interests. Rifle approaches focus on specific targets and ensure your priorities are addressed in a manner that progressively and continuously reduces risk and liability. It is easy to predict which approach is more manageable and affordable. Experience indicates that "Due Diligence" includes a detailed realistic plan that addresses environmental risks and concerns within the bounds of an organization's fiscal resources. The adage "They won't throw you in jail for trying" still rings true for most environmental regulatory agencies.
