How to handle a regulatory investigation
- Regulatory inspectors are allowed by law to enter and perform inspections and document results related to programs their agencies regulate.
- The regulatory inspector should provide credentials and must wear appropriate PPE.
- Let the TxDOT Engineer, DEQC, and Contractor know of the visit as soon as possible.
- Review safety information in the office before visiting the site.
- Stay with the inspector to answer any questions that may arise.
- TxDOT's policy is to comply with all environmental laws and to cooperate with environmental inspectors responsible for enforcing laws.
