IDEM’s New Enforcement Response Plan Felicia Robinson, Deputy Commissioner Legal Affairs for the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), spoke at the recent Central Indiana Technical and Environmental Societies, Inc. ("CITES") Environmental Symposium about IDEM’s enforcement process and enforcement priorities. IDEM has developed a new Enforcement Response Plan to determine which types of violations will result in issuance of a Notice of Violation ("NOV"). This new Response Criteria was developed to ensure consistency among inspectors across the state and consistency among the air, water, and waste program areas when determining an enforcement action is appropriate. IDEM’s intent is to provide predictability for the regulated community and to achieve the best environmental results for the use of limited state resources.
