Abstract:
The goal of this EMP was to develop and implement a comprehensive Environmental

Management Plan for MDOT Materials Laboratories. This goal was achieved through

perfonnance of environmental audits to identify potential environmental impacts, and by

identifying the roles and responsibilities of personnel related to maintaining compliance

with regulations. Identification of procedural practices and deficiencies in equipment

and/or facilities was done during the audits. The EMP will be maintained by supporting

documentation to identify specific elements, procedures, products, and services that fall

under the control of MDOT Laboratories. Furthermore, a computer based compliance

tracking tool will be utilized to follow compliance issues from identification to closure. A

safety audit was also performed to identify potential concerns in safety gaps with

employee functions and equipment and to provide recommended solutions. The ultimate

goal is to maintain reasonably assured environmental compliance with all applicable

Federal, State, and local laws, regulations and requirements by maintaining

environmental stewardship of assets and full discharge of environmental responsibilities.

The Environmental Management Plan is a continuous process that will require occasional

reviews to maintain and update. The establishment of a fully functioning Environmental

Management Plan (EMP) will serve as the framework for establishing, reviewing and

maintaining environmental compliance objectives and targets throughout MDOT

Materials Laboratories. The EMP ultimately maintains environmental policy and

develops the procedures to achieve the goals and targets of environmental visions within

MDOT Materials Laboratories.
