The IGP may differ as you move across state lines as some states prioritize natural resource management more than others. The facility\u2019s Standard Industrial Code (SIC) determines if coverage is required.&nbsp; If your facility has no outside exposure of the potential pollutants, then your facility can obtain non-exposure certification (NEC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Happens if Your Business or Project is Out of Compliance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is the responsibility of local government agencies to identify and report any facilities that are out of compliance. However, older establishments are more likely to be out of compliance <del> <\/del>than new organizations. <ins>&nbsp;<\/ins>This is because many government agencies now check business license applications to see if you will need an industrial general permit<del>,<\/del> and will usually inform you at that time. If you are found out of compliance, you may be significantly fined or have the project put on \u201chold\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Verify if Your Facility is in Compliance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The process of verifying your organization\u2019s compliance status varies from state to state, or even across city and county lines.
