The challenges of environmental compliance can be complex for any facility at any specific location on the globe. For example, consider the ACME manufacturing facility located in Anytown, USA.

These multijurisdictional requirements and risks can sometimes overlap, and it is not uncommon for them to be vague or even conflict with one another. But what if the ACME facility were not stationary? What if Anytown, USA, was floating around the world on the “Seven Seas”? The compliance requirements would then be ever changing. The requirements might be in different languages or difficult to find and understand. The boundaries between various jurisdictions might not be clear.
