Go With A DEP Inspector
Come Along on a DEP Inspection
Most people never have the chance to go along with staff from the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to inspect a resource recovery facility, landfill, surface mine or other operation DEP regulates.
Now you can!
Come along with DEP inspectors as they review facility operations to make sure they comply with state environmental laws and permit conditions and learn the steps DEP inspectors take to make sure any problems are corrected.
- First, choose which one of the facilities you want to inspect.
- Get a "First-Time Inspector's" briefing on the facility you are going to.
- Then meet up with our inspection staff and you're on your way!
Environmental laws and regulations today are complex, so we can't describe everything that goes into regulating these operations, but we hope this section provides an interesting overview of how DEP inspects these facilities.
Inspections, though, are just one of the many steps DEP takes to educate people about our environmental laws and regulations.
