Hopefully there is someone at your plant that knows what kinds of regulations/laws you need to obey. List those out, along with what pieces of equipment (production, measuring, etc., you'll need this info as you go through implementation.) are affected, does it affect air/stormwater/land? i.e. get some basic knowledge of how your plant affects the environment and what are the rules and regulations you need to follow.
Continue to research the Cove, and ask specific questions, someone will answer, everyone is good about that!
