Assisted major utility in dealing with environmental and redevelopment issues related to legacy energy generation sites throughout Georgia and Florida. We assisted with negotiations with the Georgia EPD to formulate appropriate remediation goals and plans. Also negotiated remediation agreements with local governments, local property owners and other stakeholders to address a variety of concerns, from simple access to universal liability discharge. Worked with stakeholders to ensure appropriate restoration and redevelopment of sites after the remediation process was completed, often engaging in public-private partnerships or partnerships with quasi-governmental entities to return the properties to productive use. Supervised implementation of remediation plans to ensure compliance with EPD requirements and with the expectations of local representatives.
