She has authored guidance documents, safety and environmental manuals for the Department of Defense, safety and industrial hygiene training materials for the Department of Labor, risk management documents for NIOSH/CDC, investigative reports for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), design analysis for the Department of Homeland Security, training texts for the Department of Interior/Bureau of Indian Affairs, and numerous reports for the Environmental Protection Agency. Ms. Boss has provided compliance auditing, contractor oversight, industrial hygiene, safety engineering, emergency response and risk management planning. Ms. Boss has authored original safety program documents, authored guidance documents, and audited compliance for management systems, environmental regulations, safety, and industrial hygiene. She has expertise in indoor air quality and ventilation evaluation, due diligence assessments, biological risk assessment, pollution prevention and waste minimization studies, and industrial hygiene/safety engineering design analysis. Ms. Boss has provided clients with interdisciplinary expertise in hazard analysis and the required planning to mitigate hazards. Martha is co-editor and author of the Building Vulnerability Assessments, Biological Risk Engineering Handbook and Air Sampling and Industrial Hygiene Engineering
