  6.5 Regulatory Compliance

Regulatory Compliance

The manufacturing plants are required to maintain environmental permits for:

• wastewater discharge parameters
• stormwater management
• high strength dairy waste management
• land application of solids from our lagoons
• underground storage tanks

We also submit information under community right-to-know laws regarding hazardous materials stored at our plants.

Ben & Jerry’s has not received any state or federal violations of these permits in the past three years and maintains an excellent record for regulatory compliance.
