This three year effort started in FY17 with the objectives of capturing environmental compliance costs and lessons learned from MHK developments that have gone through the permitting and compliance process. The goal is to find ways to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the permitting and compliance process and reduce costs to encourage investment in MHK projects. The project team is composed of Sandia National Laboratories, Integral Consulting, Kearns & West, and H. T. Harvey & Associates. Step one of the project process, collect data to determine permitting and compliance costs, is currently underway. Step two of the project process, identify cost reduction pathways and step three, develop cost reduction strategies, will follow and are envisioned as an iterative approach to best meet the project goal.
