You’ll learn how to manage the tight construction schedules and project demands that can make the air permitting process stressful. After you receive the green light for construction, you can breathe a quick sigh of relief, but don’t forget your air obligations don’t end after you obtain a permit. This course will review on-going air compliance requirements such as permit terms, off-permit compliance standards and annual reporting and will give some pointers and best management practices for complying with those requirements and surviving enforcement inspections.
