Environmental Compliance

Adhering to compliance and tracking environmental impacts takes considerable organization. At CMC, we record and report on our processes so we can continually evaluate, innovate and improve upon our performance. Our CMC Poland and CMC Steel New Jersey operations, as well as our U.K. and China Tensar geogrid manufacturing operations, have satisfied the requirements for environmental management systems according to ISO 14001:2015 and are certified to that standard.

CMC environmental managers and support staff oversee compliance and train employees on key topics and practices. We also have Operational Excellence Teams that meet regularly to identify opportunities and research challenges and share achievements.

Capital project submissions and issues related to permitting, compliance and liability are elevated to the vice president of sustainability and government affairs, who reports directly to our ELT. We also report our environmental and sustainability performance metrics to our ELT quarterly and to the Board annually.
