"Missing a change to a federal regulation can pose a huge risk to environmental professionals and their clients," said Robert Shew, Vice President and Group Publisher for BNA's Environment, Health & Safety and HR & Payroll divisions. "Having a safety net like BNA Compare in place to reliably identify amendments that have taken place and confirm their accuracy eliminates the chance of overlooking an important update, allowing users to proceed in their work with confidence."

The new BNA Compare tool takes the work out of identifying the latest federal regulatory changes for users, making the process easier and quicker than ever. Amended regulations are automatically pinpointed via the self-prompted "BNA Compare" icon, which is embedded in the text to specify exactly where updates have occurred. Changes are clearly discernible, with "strikethroughs" denoting text deleted from the original federal source document and "underlining" used to designate a particular piece of text as completely new. "Effective Date" notices are also prominently listed alongside the updates and corrections to verify exactly when the changes took place.

As a leading source for authoritative reporting for over 80 years, BNA is known across the industry for the integrity and dependability of its data. Integrating BNA Compare as a part of its products only reinforces that commitment, providing a convenient safeguard BNA customers can trust to automatically vet the accuracy of their federal regulatory information.

The BNA Compare tool will be available as part of the Environment & Safety Library™ and EHS Assist® products on July 18, 2011. For more information on BNA Compare or for a demonstration, please call Mark Kozeal at 703.341.3731 or visit bna.com.
