Contaminated Sites and Long-Term Stewardship: Meeting Obligations for Residual Contamination
Best Practices for Counsel in Implementing, Maintaining, and Enforcing LTS
Recording of a 90-minute CLE video webinar with Q&A
This CLE webinar will provide guidance for environmental counsel representing companies planning, implementing, maintaining, and enforcing long-term stewardships (LTS) at contaminated sites to minimize legal risks.
Outline
- LTS
- Threshold criteria
- Controls
- Monitoring plan
- Recording keeping, reporting requirements
- Mitigation remedies
- Management of ongoing risks
- Change of ownership and other key considerations
Benefits
The panel will review these and other key questions:
- What factors should counsel consider when determining which LTS tools are to be implemented?
- What steps can counsel recommend to ensure LTS measures are effective and meet current compliance requirements?
- What framework does the EPA guidance provide to ensure the requirements for implementing LTS are met?

Dr. Schuver led the development of a technical document on ‘Radon Lessons’ based on the scientific observations from decades of Radon intrusion studies. He authored the national RCRA Corrective Action Environmental Indicator guidance for both Groundwater Migration and for Human Exposures. He also led the development of the 2001 Supplemental Guidance for Vapor Intrusion for RCRA EI Determinations which raised the awareness of VI exposures nationally and led to the development of the 2002 OSWER (RCRA & Superfund) draft VI guidance.
