Hinsdale, Illinois

As environmental manager with budgetary control and 8 indirect reports for this chemical and food grade tank truck transportation company, I handled emergency response, permitting, reporting, environmental managment system development and implementation for terminals in IL, IN, LA, MI, TN, TX. For certain Chemical Division's customers, worked with U.S. Coast regulations, requirements, and various Captain of Port offices for over-water transfers from barges. In addition, I assisted the Safety Department in early loss prevention investigations of claims for equipment damage and product contamination, as well as security issues with loads and equipment. I worked with secondary markets to reduce losses from contaminated loads. I drafted and implemented financial assurance mechanisms for UST and RCRA purposes, developed and implemented tank trailer cleaning methods, prepared job hazards analyses, investigated and determined exposure types and controllability, and assisted handling of personnel injuries and work compensation cases. I worked with the National Tank Truck Carriers, Inc., Chemical Industry Council of Illinois and CMA on federal and state environmental legislation, and participated on Illinois governor’s Small Business Environmental Task Force.
