Environmental Law

Federal and state environmental laws are complex, far reaching, and can have a significant impact upon a business's day-to-day operations and strategic decision making.  Lane & Waterman attorneys have experience counseling clients on the application of environmental laws and regulations, and handle a variety of environmental matters for local and national clients, including:

 

  • Due diligence in business transactions;
  • Negotiating transactions involving the purchase and sale of contaminated property, including Brownfields and projects involving the Iowa Land Recycling Program and the Illinois Site Remediation Program;
  • Underground storage tank regulation;
  • CERCLA cost recovery actions;
  • Environmental permitting; and
  • Landfill regulations.

 

Lane & Waterman's practice also includes defense of administrative and judicial enforcement actions before federal and state agencies and courts.
