If a company chooses to use their EMS to satisfy its TURA planning requirement, does the EMS then become a legal document?
No, however if a company uses its EMS to meet its TURA obligations, MassDEP could check the EMS to see if it includes the required elements in 310 CMR 50.80. In other words, the requirement to have an EMS that meets the requirements of 310 CMR 50.80 would become a legal obligation for the company and subject to MassDEP review.
