Virginia area Three installations in Pennsylvania.
Navy looking to enhance compliance posture, minimize NOV’s, and improve and integrate compliance assessment reporting processes.
Implemented NFESC prototype assessment project using Enviance to develop a a Navy Online Environmental Compliance Checklist System (NOECCS)
Found NOECCS could easily provide capabilities for integrating Environmental Program data management requirements.
