The costs associated with shortchanging your corporate environmental compliance can be extremely high. According to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), a fine of $25,000 per day per violation can be levied against a facility. Fines can be less, but they are typically based on the magnitude of the violation, the potential harm to human health and the environment, the economic benefit gained by the violator by not complying and the violator’s efforts to achieve compliance. Another potential cost associated with cutting compliance is public perception.
