Environmental Engineer is responsible for developing, implementing, and overseeing solutions that minimize the environmental impact of the company’s operations while ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. This role combines technical expertise with problem‑solving skills to design and manage systems that promote sustainability, resource efficiency, and environmental stewardship.

A hands‑on Environmental Engineer with 3–5 years of experience to lead air quality compliance and stormwater pollution prevention at our industrial facilities. Experience in cement, aggregates, lime, or similar bulk materials sectors is a strong plus. The role focuses on compliance strategy, monitoring, permitting, and continuous improvement for particulate/fugitive emissions and stormwater controls across plants, terminals, and ports.

• Own day-to-day compliance for particulate matter (PM10/PM2.5), opacity.
• Develop, implement, and optimize dust control BMPs (e.g., water sprays, enclosures, surfactants, paved roads, speed limits).
• Oversee baghouses, filters, and control devices: inspections, leak testing, DP trends, and maintenance coordination.
• Plan and support stack/opacity testing (e.g., EPA Methods 5/201/202/9), CEMS/COMS where installed, and ambient monitoring as applicable.
• Lead fugitive dust management for material handling, conveying, loading/unloading (vessels, trucks, rail), and silo operations.

• Develop and maintain SWPPP under applicable MSGP/NPDES permits, lead site inspections, corrective actions, and training.
• Design and maintain stormwater BMPs (e.g., containment, berms, oil‑water separators, vegetated buffers, housekeeping).
• Coordinate stormwater sampling, laboratory coordination, benchmark evaluation, and Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs).
• Support SPCC planning, secondary containment integrity checks, and response procedures for spills/releases.

• Applications/modifications, and permit by rule compliance (as applicable).
• Track and submit required reports on time (e.g., deviation reports, semi‑annual/annual certifications, TRI/Form R, Tier II).
• Maintain records, SOPs, and dashboards for inspections, incidents, deviations, and corrective actions.
• Use engineering calculations (e.g., AP‑42) and dispersion tools (e.g., AERMOD) to evaluate projects and compliance margins.

• Lead internal audits and readiness for regulatory inspections; close findings with robust CAPAs.
• Deliver toolbox talks and targeted training (fugitive dust, visible emissions, SWPPP BMPs, sampling).
• Facilitate incident investigations and root‑cause analysis (RCA) for environmental events; implement preventive actions.
• Drive continuous improvement projects that reduce emissions, off‑site impacts, and compliance risk.

• Partner with Operations, Maintenance, and Logistics on scheduling, housekeeping, and operational controls.
• Support contractor management and environmental clauses in vendor scopes (e.g., dust suppression, sweeping).
• Assist with community/neighbor communications and environmental data requests as needed.

• B.S. in Environmental Engineering (or related field).
• 3–5 years’ experience in industrial environmental compliance; cement, lime, aggregates, mining, or terminals experience preferred.
• Working knowledge of U.S. federal and state air and water regulations (e.g., Clean Air…
