Expert, Experienced, Cost-Effective EHS Compliance Services in California

California EHS regulations (Cal EPA, stormwater, wastewater, air permitting, Cal/OSHA and other local requirements) are complex and constantly changing, and the consequences of missing something are serious. CDMS comes to your facility, determines exactly which of them apply, and handles the plans, permits, reports, training and deadlines that keep you compliant year-round, so you can focus on running your operation.

CDMS EHS compliance professional at an industrial facility

One partner, however you need us

Whether you have experienced EHS people on staff or no one dedicated to it, you don’t have to track (or even fully know) every requirement, agency and deadline. Bring us a single project, ask us to look at the whole picture, or hand the entire compliance calendar to the CDMS team.

A SINGLE PROJECT

One thing, handled

A notice of violation to resolve (often with the penalty reduced), training past due, a permit renewal, a plan that’s expired: we scope it, price it and take care of it.

THE WHOLE PICTURE

Know exactly where you stand

We assess your facility or planned operations and your existing plans, programs and permits, so you know what applies, what’s in place and what’s missing.

YEAR-ROUND

We keep you compliant

A maintenance plan with recurring visits: submittals filed on time, training kept current, regulatory changes caught before they reach your facility, so things are not missed.

Whichever way you work with CDMS, you have one team that knows your facility and one number to call.

Online training, built for your facility

Most CDMS online training is customized to your operations and kept current with the regulations that apply to you. Your team takes it on the CDMS Online Training site. (In-person training at your facility is part of our services above.)

Environmental and safety regulations in California are very technical and change continuously. This is why we dedicate senior resources to track new regulations, build long-term relationships with regulators, and advise clients on the sequence of action to take to be compliant

Your partner in EHS compliance: 35+ years across California

We know DTSC, the CUPAs, the Air Districts, the Water Boards, the local sanitation districts and Cal/OSHA, because we work with them on behalf of our clients across the state.

Your EHS specialist knows your facility: your operations, processes and people, not just your regulatory profile.

Every deadline tracked: permits, filings, training renewals and reporting windows, so nothing takes you by surprise.

No surprises on scope or price: if a new requirement applies to your facility, we tell you before we bill you.

“Johnson Matthey has been working with CDMS for over a decade. They handle special projects like Haz waste tank certifications, air quality monitoring, occasional projects like SB 14 waste minimization plans and a range of other regulatory requirements for us on an as needed basis when we do not have sufficient bandwidth in-house. I really like the fact that we have support in both locations, San Jose and San Diego. They can be relied on to do quality work in a cost-effective manner.”
