Ms. Ellis has 40 years’ experience in the environmental field. She worked as an environmental and safety manager for large manufacturing for over ten years.

Her extensive permitting experience includes the assessment of federal state and local applicable requirements, compliance strategies, and the development of flexible permits. She has completed BACT and analyses for many PSD permit applications. Additionally, she has completed PAL applications in both South Carolina and Alabama as well as synthetic minor Title V operating permit applications to provide clients with added flexibility in permitting. And recently worked as a member of the client and their respective trade organization team to prepare and submit the required MACT Residual Toxic Risk Analysis information and to provide comment son the proposed rule. She has assisted several clients in re-positioning major source MACT facilities to area sources via the EPA guidance and recently promulgated rule revision.

She has worked with industrial clients to assess their regulatory compliance programs, determined areas where the facility may have been given excessive regulatory requirements and worked with the regulatory agencies to remove them.
