Join an expert panel to discuss current issues in regulation of subsurface contamination. Environmental Law Institute will offer a brief overview of current subsurface regulation before examining issues faced by practitioners, regulators, and the public in addressing subsurface contamination and remediation.

Underground contamination poses particularly thorny problems and is increasingly gaining regulators’ attention. Whether it’s underground contaminants migrating into buildings, the potential for hydraulic fracturing to create contamination, or remediating hard-to-treat contaminants in groundwater, subsurface contamination vexes many environmental professionals. The laws and regulations that address these issues are varied, from the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) to state oil and gas and water laws and regulations. How do these statutes fit together and what processes and procedures have been sanctioned by regulators for effective, lasting remediation?
