Hospital and hospital system departmental and administration leaders often struggle with meeting regulatory compliance requirements related to RCRA and myriad other federal and state environmental regulations such as the Clean Air Act, Emergency Preparedness and Community Right to Know Act and others. When corrective actions are required, leaders may be reactive in addressing regulatory citations and may only superficially address the root cause(s) to compliance.
