- Increased consumption of resources and generation of emissions and waste due to significant increases in production, staffing, and revenue.
- Unexpected rises in refrigerant leaks and food waste.
- Increased water consumption due to increased production and higher consumption levels at all metered locations.
- Expected increases in natural gas use due to the addition of properties and increased activity at existing locations.
- Increased waste generation due to increased activity and production.
