Separate to the SCoM, TDM has an Environmental Performance Monitoring Committee (EPMC) at the working level at every plantation estate and mill which is responsible for the collection of environmental compliance and non-compliance set by policies of the Group and in line with the Department of Environment’s self-guided regulations.
Members of the EPMC are selected based on Certified Environmental Professional in Scheduled Waste Management (CePSWaM) and Certified Environmental Professional in the Treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (CePPOME) criteria. All issues are presented and discussed during the committee’s quarterly meetings and will be addressed by the Environmental Regulatory Compliance Monitoring Committee (ERCMC) at the headquarters’ level.
