Yes, you are probably already compliant with local, state and federal environmental regulations.  ISO 14000 is not another certification of that fact.  ISO 14000 best practices create a systematic approach to managing your efforts to make compliance easier, reduce costs of compliance, eliminate waste, make environmental concerns transparent with the way you do business, and manage all environmental efforts more effectively.

the ISO 14000 methodology for environmental management is a competitive approach.  It provides the necessary requirements and recommendations for any organization to develop and implement a cost-effective system of managing your environmental affairs.  ISO 14000 is an internationally recognized standard with best practices for creating an environmental management system.

Not to be confused with ISO 9000, a quality management system, ISO 14000 is closely tied to ISO 9000 for seamless integration, creating one management system for quality and environmental concerns.  Once implemented, your ISO 14000 EMS will be audited annually be a 3rd-party internationally-recognized registrar.  This ensures that your EMS is meeting international best practices and your company will be registered around the world.

An ISO 14000 environmental management system (EMS) will create a structural environment for managing all of those loose ends and will blend them into your daily routine.  Procedures, lists, logs, regulations, response plans, audits, training… bring it all together into one manageable system.
