Environmental Regulations
I feel the pain of people who, for whatever reason, find themselves with the environmental regulatory responsibilities at an industrial facility without proper background, knowledge or applicable experience in the environmental field. Not knowing what you don’t know could be quite of a disadvantage… Knowing where to start from and how, the complexity of environmental regulations, penalties, fines, earning the respect of leadership team and the trust of your peers and other workers could be physically, emotionally and mentally exhausting and draining. Getting a handle on all of this takes some time, effort, commitment and strategy.
Having the platform to share what I’ve learned in the past 18 years dealing with hundreds of environmental professionals, colleagues, auditors and industrial facilities in the U.S. and other countries, my goal is to help environmental professionals or others with environmental responsibilities to survive and thrive in their roles.
At GreenUp Academy, we offer a webinar just for this purpose: Environmental Regulations 101
This is a beginner level course. We are an Exemplar Global Recognized Training Provider and this course is certified under this program, which gives our attendees to take advantage of the great perks that Exemplar Global offers.
Environmental Regulations 101 is a 2-day online course with breaks. We provide handouts and a recording of the entire course for all attendees. This includes the registrants that could not attend the live session.
We focus on the most common Federal environmental regulations with sampled state variations including EPCRA Tier II and TRI Reporting, Stormwater Regulations, Industrial Wastewater Discharge, Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures, Air Permitting, Hazardous Waste and Universal Waste.
If you are:
1) A brand new environmental professional with very little to no experience
2) A seasoned Environmental, Health and Safety professional with more focus on safety but less on environmental
3) An ISO 14001 auditor or
4) the Responsible official of an industrial facility who is willing to understand all the environmental documents, reports, permits that you sign and the associated obligations that come with it…
I strongly believe that this course will help you.
You can read more about this webinar here! This one will take place on May 25-26, 2022. The last session of 2nd quarter will be on June 21-22, 2022. You can register for the June session here!
Please also take a look at our other webinars here!
GreenUp Academy is a PECB North America Partner, another internationally accredited partner, which gives us the possibility to offer self-study and e-learning courses for numerous ISO Standards including ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 9001 and many more… Visit our PECB courses here!

To address certain ISO management systems and Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) regulatory compliance related topics in shorter time, we decided to launch our new 30-minute mini webinar series.

Some weeks, we will be interviewing EHS/ISO experts and listen to their side of the stories.

We encourage and welcome you to join us in this new venture. You can join us in several ways:
- Become one of our experts and tell us your story.
- Contact us with any EHS and/or ISO questions, concerns and topics and we will do our best to address them.
- Let us know which EHS/ISO expert you would be interested to watch and we will try to make that happen.
Just email us at: info@greenupconsultants.com

Exemplar Global Interviews Mel DeGregorio
Exemplar Global interviewed Mel DeGregorio, GreenUp’s Lead Facilitator and Principal Consultant on ISO auditing, environmental management systems and auditor training…
EXEMPLAR GLOBAL: Tell me about your background and how you found your way to auditing.
MEL DEGREGORIO: I had two great passions in my life: Volleyball, which I have played for more than 25 years, and horseback riding. The problem was, though, that I was too short for volleyball to become an international player and too tall for being a horse jockey! While I was thinking and hoping that I have got to be good for something (laughter), my delightful thermodynamics course in college was very subtly forcing me to re-evaluate my life choices every week…

How to Survive and Thrive as a New Environmental Professional?
I lived it… I’ve witnessed it in countless occasions…
I feel the pain of people who, for whatever reason, found themselves with the environmental responsibilities at an industrial facility without proper background, knowledge or applicable experience in the environmental field. Not knowing what you don’t know could be quite of a disadvantage… Knowing where to start from and how, the complexity of environmental regulations, penalties, fines, earning the respect of leadership team and the trust of your peers and other workers could be physically, emotionally and mentally exhausting and draining. Getting a handle on all of this takes some time, effort, commitment and strategy.
I was a NEW environmental professional once, I understand! I see you…
Now, I have the platform to share what I’ve learned in the past 18 years dealing with hundreds of environmental professionals, and industrial facilities in the U.S. and other countries. My goal is to prevent you, the new folks, from making the well-known professional and behavioral mistakes, and steer you in the right direction along with sharing a few secrets of the trade… Environmental field could be your calling.
Think about discovering your life purpose, meeting and exceeding your potential while unleashing that abundant, endless, wild inner energy that only shows up when you have a purpose, passion and sharp focus… When you combine your passion with persistence, commitment, positive attitude and smart work; then comes the priceless, sweet and addictive taste of success… It’s irresistible!
I’m not saying that environmental field is everybody’s calling. All I’m saying is that since you’ve already become the environmental person at your site (unless you quit already!), don’t just dismiss the field yet or get frustrated and resentful before you give it a chance. Find out more about it, transition into your new position by surrounding yourself with the right knowledge. We all know that knowledge is power! After you know more about this field, if you’re still not interested, by all means, then, move on to the other things that will make you happy and make you feel satisfied in your career.
During my environmental regulatory compliance and IS0 14001 environmental management system audits at different sites, do you know how many times I’ve witnessed the helplessness of the environmental managers, coordinators or specialists? The answer is more than I wanted to see.
I used to say to myself, if they only knew how to make this better in such an easier manner… I’ve tried to help, of course, as much as I could, without violating the given time and conflict of interest guidelines and restrictions; however, I knew that they needed more…
So I decided to start this mission of helping the new environmental professionals. As a first step; I created a 2-hour webinar, which is only the start of an attempt to smooth this transition for you, and help you towards excelling at your job, and perhaps, help the environmental field to gain some talented people just like you… I have so much to share…
