Steigers Corporation: Environmental Permitting Services


	Permitting Services
	In today's business environment, new projects and developments can often be delayed, stalled, or even terminated because of regulatory requirements or public opposition. Federal, state, and local environmental permitting regulations are complex. For any business or government agency, it is no longer a matter of just reading the rules and filling out the permit forms. In some cases, permitting and mitigation costs can be as high as 20 percent of the total project investment.
		The regulations are only a starting point in today's world of permitting requirements; different agencies and even different offices of the same agency may interpret and implement regulations differently. The complications of getting the necessary approvals without compromising the needs of the project are often some of the most difficult challenges facing a project developer. When you choose Steigers Corporation to assist you, you acquire a staff of professionals with proven ability to successfully execute comprehensive permitting efforts for major development projects, as well as for smaller projects. We are proactive and aggressive in representing your project while also maintaining good working relationships with the agencies.

		Based on our superior work for their Title V permit application, Westward requested that Steigers Corporation prepare a PSD construction permit application.
		Steigers Corporation's approach to permitting is unique. Each effort is tailored to the individual client and project and to the regulatory agencies involved. For each project, we begin by establishing a complete list of the permits and supporting documentation that will be required. We prepare technically complete permit applications, and we closely track the permit application review process. Our approach allows us to identify schedule and cost changes early and to provide you with the up-to-date information you need to manage the entire project efficiently.
	On many of our clients' projects, our expertise has provided relief from expanded permit stipulations that would have resulted in escalated long-term operating costs. We assisted Nushagak Electric Cooperative in negotiating an agreement with the state air permitting authority that allows existing power generation equipment to continue to operate without implementing Best Available Control Technology until the useful life of each unit is depleted. Thus, our client avoided the need to install expensive NOx emission controls on aging equipment and was allowed to put its limited resources to better use on more efficient and less-polluting new units. Permitting services include: permit coordination and environmental program management environmental input to project feasibility studies site selection and assessment studies environmental input to site layout and design critical or fatal flaw analysis public participation/community outreach programs field studies for baseline data collection and specialized requirements preparation of federal, state, and local permit applications permit compliance assistance and post-construction monitoring plan preparation.
