Huff & Huff, Inc. (H&H) offers a full spectrum of air quality management services, geared toward the needs of the industrial client. Air quality management, by definition, involves the production process. Accordingly, H&H recognizes that it is not enough to just provide high quality engineering and regulatory compliance services; the production and business interests of the client must be protected at the same time.

The firm’s engineers and scientists have a wide range of experience with a variety of industries and the sector-specific programs and regulations affecting each. Our staff has worked on numerous air emission reports and permitting applications, under the senior staff direction. A few of the industries H&H's air quality staff have provided service to are as follows: independent power production, electric utility, natural gas utility, petrochemical, steel, food processing, graphic arts, metal finishing, consumer products, non-ferrous metal, pharmaceutical, machining, and automobile and truck production.

Increased regulatory attention to “continuous compliance” has forced industry to pay more attention to permit design and the record keeping and monitoring provision contained in each permit. H&H assists its clients in negotiating air quality permits with the least obtrusive (easiest to comply with) conditions possible. The firm also assists its clients in designing programs to meet all continuing compliance requirements, either by training clients to meet their own monitoring, record keeping and reporting obligations, or by providing clients any of these services on a contract basis.

The complexity and overlapping nature of air quality programs are often confusing, especially where new projects or plant expansions are concerned. Federal programs like NSPS, PSD, NESHAP and New Source Review may overlay state programs with similar requirements. Evaluating the full regulatory effect of a project (whether that project is contemplated in the future or considered retrospectively) is a service H&H is uniquely qualified to provide. In addition to the myriad potential air quality implications, the firm’s multimedia capabilities also mean that the project’s implications in the hazardous waste, waste water and solid waste sectors can also be evaluated during the peer review process.

H&H staff also has the experience and training to design and manage emission test programs, perform environmental audits and to perform air pollution dispersion modeling using a wide variety of tools, including: ISC, AERMOD, RPM, SCREEN, CALQHC, and OBODM.

Finally, H&H's staff is continuously involved in the regulatory development process, including new trading program development, the development of new MACTs and the continuing design of PM2.5 and regional haze regulations.
