x The auditor may propose to request Organization to adopt an Environment

Management Plan (EMP) if issues are identified in the audit that are considered to be

repetitive or are ongoing issues, or problems that present significant concern for

environmental impact. The EMP is a Corrective Action Plan that must be submitted

and approved by EAC and requires formal reporting of the resolution of the issues.

Guidance regarding the requirements for developing an EMP should be provided by

the Auditor to facilitate the Organization to achieve an effective solution

x The EAR should have recommendations to address any significant non-conformances

deficiencies,

including

allocating

priorities

for

corrective

action.

Any

recommendations should be specific and detailed enough to allow GSPCB and

Organization management the ability to evaluate the feasibility and appropriateness

of implementing the recommendation. Types of recommendations might include

further investigation of an issue or implementation of emissions control technology or

environmental pollution control best management practices. The emphasis of

recommendations should be on removing the source of the problem rather than the

use of command-and-control (or end-of-pipe) technology.

The recommendations should be brief and concise to allow Organization management

to address the issue and GSPCB& EAC to assess adequate resolution of the same.
