Advising a publicly traded international metals mining company in connection with the remediation and redevelopment of a large former copper smelting facility. Our work includes handling the defense and settlement of a threatened Resource Conservation and Recovery Act claim and the defense of a class action toxic tort lawsuit; assisting the client in addressing regulatory requirements for the on-site and off-site investigation and remediation of legacy contamination issues, including in residential areas in the surrounding community and in certain tidal wetlands and surface water bodies; and addressing regulatory issues arising from the divestiture and redevelopment of the property.
