Hazardous Waste

     

  • Persistent negotiation – even after receiving an unlawful   detainer (notice to move out) – on behalf of a dry cleaner who experienced   contamination beneath its shop. The contamination, while limited to a few   parts per million, nonetheless required environmental cleanup under very   stringent standards of the US Environmental Protection Agency. After long and   persistent negotiation, the landlord agreed to pay the larger share of the   cleanup costs and allow the dry cleaner to continue as a tenant. The dry   cleaner, using publicly available grants and relying on its experienced   staff, switched its cleaning to a water-based system to guarantee against   future environmental problems.


  • With the help of an expert scientific consultant, negotiated   penalties (with the California Department of Toxic Substances and the Office   of the Attorney General of the State of California) for hazardous waste   management violations for a metals client to an acceptable level.


  •  Worked with expert "number crunchers" and exerted bi-partisan political pressure on the US Environmental Protection Agency to substantially reduce their demand to 190 clients to settle for clean-up of legally disposed of waste to the hazardous waste dump in Casmalia, Santa Barbara County, California. No client was charged over $3,500; some clients' settlement costs were cut by over $100,000.
