Enforcement

For PRTRs with mandatory reporting mechanisms, compliance monitoring can be used to detect non-compliance through instruments including inspections, audits to identify root causes of non-compliance, off-site record reviews, and regular meetings between inspectors and operators to discuss existing and potential compliance issues. Enforcement may be used to address non-compliance. Enforcement responses may be designed to return the violator to compliance; correct management problems; impose sanctions to punish the violator and deter others; remove economic benefits of non-compliance; or correct damages. To select which mechanisms will be used, your country may consider what regulations can be used to enforce PRTR compliance and what enforcement responses are possible under those regulations. Countries may also consider what penalties should be issued for non-compliance.
