In 2011, a Minnesota refinery hired Barr to assist with a broad range of environmental permitting and compliance activities including air quality construction and operating permitting, routine air quality and emergency planning compliance reporting, onsite staffing support, wastewater and stormwater permitting, and regulatory tracking.
When the refinery operated as an independent without an corporate environmental group, Barr served in a similar role by providing guidance on key environmental issues and advice on the strategies and tactics used across the refining industry.
