EHS COOP Program in Tulsa OK
iSi Environmental delivers EHS cooperative services for Tulsa oil & gas and manufacturing starting at $15,000/year—replacing a $130,000–$195,000 full-time hire. ODEQ compliance, PSM management, H2S safety, and SPCC planning. Unlimited access to industrial hygienists, environmental engineers, and safety specialists.
What Is the EHS COOP Program?
The EHS COOP program is a subscription-based, outsourced Environmental Health and Safety management service designed for mid-market operators who need professional compliance coverage without hiring a full-time EHS director. In Tulsa's oil & gas and manufacturing sectors, hiring an in-house EHS professional costs $130K-$195K annually (salary, benefits, payroll taxes)—a significant expense for organizations with 50-500 employees.
Our COOP program provides on-call EHS expertise, regulatory document management, permit coordination, compliance tracking, and emergency support at a fraction of full-time employment cost. Your dedicated team at iSi Environmental understands ODEQ air permitting, Oklahoma oil & gas regulations, PSM requirements, contractor safety, and H2S hazards specific to Tulsa operations.
Choose from three flexible pricing tiers: COOP Foundation ($15K/year) for basic compliance, COOP Maintenance ($34K/year) adding PSM and regulatory updates, or COOP Partner Program ($60K/year) for comprehensive PSM management and unlimited on-call availability. Many Tulsa operators use COOP as their entire EHS function; others use it as a backup to a part-time safety coordinator.

ODEQ Compliance and Oklahoma Oil & Gas Regulations
Tulsa oil & gas operators face unique regulatory challenges: Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) air permits, underground storage tank regulations, spill response planning, and reporting requirements specific to crude oil processing and pipeline operations. Our team stays current with ODEQ regulatory updates and Oklahoma-specific oil & gas rules—knowledge that's critical for facilities in the state.
COOP subscribers benefit from our dedicated monitoring of regulatory changes, permit renewal calendars, and compliance documentation. We maintain your facility's air permits, hazardous waste manifests, spill response plans, and Tier II reporting. For many Tulsa operators, this regulatory management alone justifies the COOP cost—avoiding missed deadlines, permit lapses, or documentation gaps that trigger ODEQ enforcement.
Whether you operate a small crude oil processing facility, manage pipeline operations, or run a petrochemical plant, COOP provides the regulatory expertise and ongoing support your Tulsa operation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the EHS COOP program suitable for oil & gas operators in Tulsa? +
Yes. The EHS COOP program is specifically designed for mid-market oil & gas operators, refineries, and petrochemical facilities that need professional EHS management without hiring a full-time EHS director (cost: $130K-$195K annually plus benefits). Our dedicated team understands ODEQ air permitting, PSM requirements, underground storage tank compliance, SPCC planning, and H2S safety—all critical for Tulsa oil & gas operations. COOP subscribers receive on-call support, regulatory document management, permit coordination, and compliance tracking. Many Tulsa operators use COOP as their primary EHS function, while others use it as a backup to a part-time EHS coordinator.
What PSM and refinery compliance is covered in each COOP tier? +
COOP Foundation ($15K annually) covers basic ODEQ air permits, hazardous waste documentation, and SPCC plan maintenance. COOP Maintenance ($34K annually) adds PSM audit support, contractor safety program development, H2S safety plan review, and quarterly compliance updates. COOP Partner Program ($60K annually) includes full PSM management, ongoing PSM training, detailed process hazard analysis support, management of change review, incident investigation support, emergency response plan development, and unlimited on-call availability. For Tulsa refineries, we recommend COOP Maintenance or Partner Program depending on your facility complexity and regulatory risk. Our team works closely with your operations staff to identify which tier matches your facility's needs.
How much does EHS COOP cost compared to hiring an in-house EHS professional? +
In-house EHS directors in Tulsa cost $130K-$195K annually (salary plus benefits, payroll taxes, equipment, and training). iSi COOP program pricing: Foundation tier $15K/year (basic compliance), Maintenance tier $34K/year (PSM support, regulatory updates), Partner Program tier $60K/year (comprehensive PSM, incident investigation, unlimited on-call). Even the Partner Program tier is one-third the cost of a full-time EHS director, with the added benefit of access to specialized expertise (industrial hygiene, environmental engineering, safety consulting) without hiring additional staff. Many mid-market operators choose COOP as their primary EHS function, while larger facilities use COOP as a supplement to a part-time coordinator.
