Compliance Assessments and ISO 14001 EMS Development

US Postal Service (USPS)

EI conducted environmental compliance audits at major United States Postal Service (USPS) facilities in the Pacific Northwest, Alaska and Western states (WA, OR, CA, ID, AK). The focus of these audits was regulatory and postal service compliance, and the development of environmental management system (EMS) measurement performance evaluation systems that were in accordance with ISO 14000 standards. The project included development of a “template EMS” based on audits performed at individual facilities and implementation of that template at different Western Area facilities. Provided advice regarding environmental auditing and ISO 14000, development of audit teams, coordination of the audits, on-site interviews, development and reporting of findings, data gap analysis, life-cycle analysis and preparation of final reports. Provided assistance with environmental planning and document control. Supported the USPS in waste management and compliance projects, including air issues, storm water and waste management, risk assessment, asbestos and lead assessments, underground storage tank removal and disposal of contaminated soils.
