Does Minnesota RETAP help with regulatory compliance issues?
No. Minnesota RETAP assessments and other services are completely outside the regulatory and compliance framework. They are provided to identify opportunities to minimize waste, pollution and energy use, and to reduce operating costs. Minnesota RETAP retirees are not trained to help solve regulatory or compliance problems. Even though Minnesota RETAP services are not intended to address regulatory or compliance issues, many companies have found that as they have implemented the waste reduction recommendations contained in Minnesota RETAP reports, they have also reduced their regulatory liability or exposure.
