Environmental Regulation. The enforcement services to be delegated all operate on a Monday – Friday basis, although weekends and evening working is possible by prior arrangement, but usually at additional expense. The majority of work undertaken by the Regulatory team involves responding to requests for service made by members of the public, via the Council’s contact centre, or Xxxx Members. Responding to these issues takes up approximately 85% of the time available within the team. On this basis the Area Committee is currently able to direct approximately 15% to be used best to fit with local priorities. The requests for service made in 2010 in Outer North East are detailed at Appendix G together with a summary of the services provided by this part of the team. The work of this element of the service forms part of the next phase of the review of Environmental Services. The Area Committee’s Environmental sub group will need to consider the following, in order to help inform the review and how the existing capacity to respond to local priorities can be best used; • The Area Committee’s top enforcement issues • The preferred balance of approaches locally, i.e. between enforcement, clean-up and educational/promotional activity; and • Geographical hotspots At a xxxx level, local tasking arrangements will be used by the service to lead discussion and ensure the securing of partner resources in problem solving and addressing the priority “grime” issues through joint enforcement.
Environmental Regulation. The enforcement services to be delegated all operate on a Monday – Friday basis, 7am to 7pm, although weekends and late evening/early morning working is possible by prior arrangement, but usually at additional expense. The majority of work undertaken by the Regulatory team involves responding to requests for service made by members of the public, via the Council’s contact centre, or xxxx Members. Responding to these issues takes up approximately 60% of the time available within the team. On this basis the Area Committee is currently able to direct approximately 40% to be used best to fit with local priorities. Environmental Sub-Groups, along with xxxx based discussions, will be used to set priorities and direct regulatory resources to areas and issues of greatest need. Each xxxx will have dedicated patrol resources to be prioritised and directed by xxxx members at a local level. Each xxxx will receive one day of patrol resources every 11 weeks. At a xxxx level, local Crime and Grime arrangements will be used by the service to lead discussion and ensure the securing of partner resources in problem solving and addressing priority “grime” issues through joint enforcement.

Environmental Regulation. In connection with its research and development activities and its manufacturing materials and products, the Company is subject to federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and policies governing the use, generation, manufacture, storage, air emission, effluent discharge, handling and disposal of certain materials, biological specimens and wastes. Although the Company believes that it has complied with these laws, regulations and policies in all material respects and has not been required to take any significant action to correct any noncompliance, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to incur significant costs to comply with environmental and health and safety regulations in the future. The Company's research and development involves the controlled use of hazardous materials, including but not limited to certain hazardous chemicals and radioactive materials. Although the Company believes that its safety procedures for handling and disposing of such materials comply with the standards prescribed by state and federal regulations, the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials cannot be eliminated. In the event of such an accident, the Company could be held liable for any damages that result and any such liability could exceed the resources of the Company.
