Environmental Compliance Solutions Built for Critical Infrastructure
We help wastewater treatment plants, municipal systems, and industrial facilities meet EPA, NPDES, and local regulations with automated systems and trusted calibration.
NPDES Permit Compliance
Automated monitoring and reports that keep you inside permit limits and away from costly EPA fines.
Flow Calibration
Precision calibration for influent, effluent, and internal flow meters to support accurate environmental reporting.
Water Quality Monitoring
Real-time pH, turbidity, and chlorine residual tracking to ensure water safety and permit compliance.
Modern Monitoring That Keeps You Ahead of Regulations
Regulatory expectations rise every year and outdated monitoring leaves your facility exposed. Whether you manage influent and effluent, track chlorine, or maintain NPDES permits, you need accurate data in real time.
When numbers are wrong, late, or missing, regulators can issue fines that stack by the day and require costly fixes.
We build environmental compliance systems that automate reporting and replace manual logs. We use proven instruments so your data stays accurate across the facility.
With continuous monitoring, remote access, and clear chain of custody records, your team can respond faster, cut the risk of violations, and stay ahead of changing rules.
The Compliance Challenge
Many plants still depend on a mix of manual practices and aging equipment. That creates gaps in data and makes NPDES and DMR reporting harder than it needs to be.
- Building NPDES and DMR reports each month from handwritten logs or Excel instead of automated, permit based data.
- Never fully trusting flow or sample numbers because meters and analyzers drift and calibration records are inconsistent.
- Scrambling after alarms, near misses, or violations instead of seeing permit trends drift and correcting issues early.
Why Plants Trust Control Associates:
Fifty plus years in compliance monitoring
Designing and supporting systems that stay accurate and ready for inspection.
Thirty year average client relationship
Clients stay because their systems stay calibrated and documented as permits change.
Three hundred facilities under support
Municipal sites and industries relying on our telemetry, reporting, and support to stay compliant.
How We Design Your Compliance System
Every project starts on site with your permits, process, and team. We walk the plant with operators, confirm what needs to be measured, and set the ranges that matter. Then we design the monitoring system and trace each signal from the field into your reports so the numbers match. When equipment needs work we handle replacement or upgrades, verify readings with our reference tools, and leave clear calibration and service records.
Core Capabilities:
Permit based compliance design
We review NPDES and local requirements and decide what needs to be measured, logged, and reported at your plant.
Influent and effluent monitoring
We apply and locate flow and sampling points so influent, effluent, and discharge limits are documented correctly.
Process water quality monitoring
We use pH, chlorine residual, turbidity, and other analyzers at key stages to support permit and plant reporting.
Automated compliance reporting
We configure logging and calculations so NPDES, DMR, and local reports pull the right values the first time.
Compliance data logging and audit trail
We set up data storage and records so you can answer inspector questions with clear history and chain of custody.
Calibration and verification programs
We build calibration and verification routines so meters and instruments stay within tolerance with documented results.
