Background

About Richard Liston

I’m a dedicated Environmental Compliance professional with experience coordinating hazardous waste projects across Alaska’s most challenging sites. Since February 2025, I’ve led the planning, permitting, and execution of multi-phase removal and remediation projects for Environmental Compliance Consultants (ECC), ensuring 100% regulatory adherence and zero safety incidents.Previously at Alaska Waste, I managed regional operations—overseeing waste handling, safety audits, and continuous process improvements that reduced incident rates by 15% and improved on-time service delivery. I thrive on solving complex logistical puzzles, building cross-functional teams, and turning stringent environmental regulations into streamlined, compliant processes.I’m passionate about leveraging data-driven decision-making and stakeholder collaboration to deliver projects on time and under budget. I’m actively exploring roles where I can further drive sustainable practices and mentor junior team members in best-in-class compliance strategies.
