PotlatchDeltic operates six lumber mills and one industrial plywood plant, all of which are subject to rigorous environmental standards and legal obligations. These facilities function under a range of permits and regulations designed to protect both air and water quality.
In line with the Clean Air Act and the facility-specific Renewable Operating Permits, the company monitors key operational metrics and air emissions—such as hazardous air pollutants (HAPs)—to ensure emission levels remain low. Similarly, under the Clean Water Act, each site complies with stringent limits on the discharge of process water and stormwater through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). A commitment to resource efficiency drives ongoing efforts to minimize waste generation.
All wood product sites follow structured programs and protocols to ensure compliance with relevant environmental regulations. A comprehensive Environmental Compliance Management System (CMS) supports adherence to federal, state, and local rules governing air, water, and waste management. This system establishes consistent practices, policies, and procedures designed to maintain full regulatory compliance.
The CMS also aligns with the company’s Environmental, Health, and Safety Policy, providing a structured approach to meet annual environmental goals and improve performance at both the division and facility levels. A central feature of the CMS is the “Roadmap Process,” which identifies applicable compliance requirements and links them to specific operating procedures. The process is supported by systems for monitoring, operational controls, and thorough recordkeeping.
PotlatchDeltic aims to continuously strengthen its environmental compliance through employee education, performance monitoring, and regular evaluations. Internal audits and corrective actions play a key role, with significant findings and best practices shared company-wide to foster consistent improvement. Each location reviews its compliance status and progress toward environmental targets at least twice per year, while company-wide assessments occur multiple times annually as part of strategic planning.
