In this episode, we’re joined by members of the Environmental Policy Innovation Center (EPIC) team Jessie Mahr, Director of Technology, and Becca Madsen, Director of the Restoration Economy Center. Jessie shares how she landed at EPIC advocating for innovation and digitization in the environmental industry, after experiencing firsthand the difficulties in accessing and obtaining high-quality field data as a field scientist, and then hitting up against resistance to technology within the industry while working at an environmental tech company. Becca continues the conversation by discussing where innovations in the environmental permitting process are currently taking place, specifically the Permitting Enhancement and Evaluation Platform (PEEP) within the Virginia DEQ allowing applicants to view their permit status throughout the entire submission process.
