Local governments throughout the country have long recognized the harm abandoned and underdeveloped brownfield properties can pose to their communities. Properties that lie idle because of fear of environmental contamination, unknown cleanup costs, and liability risks can cause and perpetuate neighborhood blight, with associated threats to a community’s health, environment, and economic development. Local government property acquisition authority is one of the key tools to facilitate the redevelopment of brownfields. Unfortunately, local governments are often dissuaded from such acquisition because of well-founded fear of environmental liability, particularly under CERCLA, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act.

Please join NALGEP and Spiegel & McDiarmid, LLP for a FREE web cast featuring a discussion of local governments' risk of liability under CERCLA and potential defenses to that liability. The web cast will take place from 3:00-4:30 PM Eastern on Thursday, July 30th.
